Cut utility example
102
Historical Server
Suppose that you are interested in only the total I/O for each device during the
sample. You could execute the following command to cut out the data you want
by executing the following command:
cut -f1,2,5 -d, d1_1_device_io > d1_1_device.io.new
where field 1 is the date and time of the sample, 2 is the second field, which is
the device name, and 5 is the fifth field, which is the device I/O value.
Now you can import the d1_1_device.new file into an Adaptive Server table as
described in the previous section, “Bulk copy example” on page 99.
For more information about the
cut
utility, refer to the UNIX reference pages
on your system.
