Awk help

[lockdon]

I want to use awk to strip certain fields from the output of the Dell OMSA storage hardware diag tool. Typically the format of the output is:

ID                        : 0:0:11
Status                    : Ok
Name                      : Physical Disk 0:0:11
State                     : Online
Power Status              : Spun Up
Bus Protocol              : SAS

Negotiated Speed          : 6.00 Gbps

Manufacture Year          : 2010
SAS Address               : 5000C500240A0BE9

I want to run the command, pipe the output through awk and get the following:

ID                        : 0:0:11
Status                    : Ok
Name                      : Physical Disk 0:0:11
State                     : Online
Capacity                  : 558.38 GB (599550590976 bytes)

but only if the Status is Non-Critical or Failed.

My experience with awk is limited, and I am reading up on awk programming, but I would appreciate any help so I can get this running as a tool for discovering issues before they become critical.

Thank you for the help

hi,

awk -F' : ' 'BEGIN{b[1]="ID"; b[2]="Status"; b[3]="Name"; b[4]="State"; b[5]="Capacity"} {a[$1]=$0}END{ if(a["Status"] ~ "(Non-critical|Failed)$")for(i in b)print a[b[i]]}'
