Perl Priests, Sorry, if this has been covered I could not figure out the right search terms for finding it. I'm looking for the best method of pulling 2 specific strings from the aix command generated data below (lscfg -vl hdisk*). If it was all space delimited I'd have less questions about ways to do this, but since it is a mixture of spaces, periods, and blank lines I'm at a loss. 
hdisk0   P1/Z1-Aa     16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive (18200 MB)

        Manufacturer................IBM
        Machine Type and Model......ST318305LC
        FRU Number..................09P4437
        Serial Number...............0009E05B
        Part Number.................09P4436

hdisk1  P1/Z1-Ab     16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive (18200 MB)

        Manufacturer................IBM
        Machine Type and Model......ST318305LC
        FRU Number..................09P4437
        Serial Number...............0004A0D2
        Part Number.................09P4436

So I would be looking for just the physical volume name and the serial #: 
hdisk0  0009E05B
hdisk1  0004A0D2

Thanks for any direction you can give and for taking the time to look.
