[SOLVED] Flow control based on grep match pattern or string

123raajesh · 10-27-2013, 01:52 PM

Hi,

Looking to create a flow control based on a string or pattern matched in a log file.

The log file may contain either of these 3.

1 CONFSUCCESS
2 CONFFAIL
3 CONFPARTIAL

Example:
cat System.log

dsfasdfasfas
adfsfasfa
safafaf sdfaasfsa CONFSUCCESS
adsfasdfadsfadsf fafasfasdfasdf fafasfafsa
sadfafasfasdfadss fdsafadff fasfadfaf asff

So idea is to grep the message from log, based on pattern run a flow control as below.

if

1 Look in System.log - CONFSUCCESS - show message as - SUCCESSFUL - Ask user to - Press ENTER to continue

if

2 Look in System.log - CONFFAIL - show message as - FAILURE - Exit (come out of shell)

if

3 Look in System.log - CONFPARTIAL - Show message as - PARTIALSUCCESS - Exit (come out of shell)

..which is nearly identical to your OTHER thread:

Since you want a shell script/command to do something, please post what YOU have written/tried so far.

I got the solution.

Code:

# Test
if grep -os CONFSUCCESS System.log; then
  echo SUCCESSFUL
elif grep -os CONFFAIL System.log; then
  echo FAILED
elif grep -os CONFPARTIAL System.log; then
  echo "PARTIAL SUCCESS"
fi

Code:

if grep -os A /tmp/1 >> /tmp/log; then   echo "A is mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log else echo "A could not be mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log
fi
if grep -os C /tmp/1 >> /tmp/log; then   echo "c is mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log else echo "C could not be mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log
fi
if grep -os E /tmp/1 >> /tmp/log; then   echo "E is mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log else echo "E could not be mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log
fi
if grep -os G /tmp/1 >> /tmp/log; then   echo "G is mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log else echo "G could not be mounted"|tee -a /tmp/log
fi
