script help

[kholikt]

Hi,

I am writing a script to check the quality of the media in my omniback.

POOL=$(omnimm -media_info $RESULT | awk 'NR > 3 {print $3}')
QUALITY=$(omnimm -list_pool $POOL | grep -i $RESULT | awk '{print $1}')

However due to the length of my media pool, I won't be able to get the correct output.

For example, same media due to the column width problem _DDS was cut off. If I use "-detail" option I find it difficult to grep out the media pool name.

omnimm -media_info ESC_PBP_ARC_THU -detail

MediumID : ac1e1e1c:3d0d5c27:6672:0001

omnimm -media_info ESC_PBP_ARC_THU

using perl this would look something like:
(untested!)

perl media-check.pl $RESULT

where media-check.pl would be
-----
$result = shift or die "please specify result";
foreach $_ (`omnimm -media_info $result -detail`) {
if (/^Poolname:(\w+)/) {
$pool = $1;
last;
}
}
foreach $_ (`omnimm -list_pool $pool`){
if (/$result/i) {
@words=split;
print "$words[0]\n";
last;
}
}

-----

hth,
Hein.

Hi,

The below script should help you.

POOL=$(omnimm -media_info $RESULT | awk -F ":" '/Pool name/{print $2}')


To check by commandline.
omnimm -media_info omniback_1 -detail|awk -F ":" '/Pool name/{print $2}'

Hi,

It work but it put one more space character in the front

[Jdamian]

trya to parse the output of omnirpt command:

omnirpt -tab -ascii -report media_list

> It work but it put one more space character in the front

That's proably because it is hard to judge in the forum listing whether there are supposed to be spaces around the ":" on the -detail report lines or not. If there are spaces, then you do not need ":" as seperator and the example from Tamil becomes:

POOL=$(omnimm -media_info $RESULT | awk '/^Pool/{print $4}')

THis looks for a line beginning with (^) "Pool" and prints the 4th field. The first field would be "pool", the second "name", the 3th ":" and the name itself #4

Because the name is the last field you can also not worry about coutnign fields yoursef and use:

POOL=$(omnimm -media_info $RESULT | awk '/^Pool/{print $NF}')

NF = number of fields
