Two mistakes:

• Use $1 instead of $3 to get the 1st capture (you only have one set of parens).
• Use \s+ instead of the greedy .*

use warnings;
use strict;

while (<DATA>) {
    if (/Name\s+LUN\s+(\d+)/){
        my $lunid = $1;
        print "\n!$lunid!\n";
        print $_;
        exit;
    }
}

Aside: you only need to use code tags for your code and data, not for your question: Writeup Formatting Tips

---

---

Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!

Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.

Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.

Please read these before you post! —

• How do I compose an effective node title?
• How do I post a question effectively?
• Markup in the Monastery

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:

a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr

You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)

	For:		Use:
	&		&
	<		&lt;
	>		&gt;
	[		&#91;
	]		&#93;
