Re^2: 3par data acquistion

[bluethundr]

Thanks! This is a very elegant solution and gets me closer to my goal of parsing the output of the 3par commands.

Just to give you a more complete idea of what I'm dealing with, here is a sample of the output of the statvv -ni commamd :

Ideally what I would like to do is grab each discrete piece of info and stock that in it's own variable so that I can graph trends in each one. As much as I love perl, I'm a little too novice to do this just yet, tho I strive to be able to do things like this!

As it stands now there is no output from the script. If I take the $output variable and print it, this is what I see:

So I'm really unsure at this point how I can get at the data that I want. But it looks like you've dealt well with the end of the output with this chunk of code!

while (<$output>) {
        next if (m/^$/);
        last if (m/^Press.*/)       
        #grab bits here instead of using awk
              
        
        
        
    
    }

Without access to awk, however, I am really unsure as to how I can grab the data I want and throw that into some variables I can use. Thanks

[callmeavis]

Use the "$_" scalar to work with individual lines inside the while loop. You can do something like this until you get comfortable with "$_"

next if (m/^$/);
last if (m/^Press.*/)       
my $line = $_; 
#grab bits here instead of using awk

I'd also suggest looking at split to put the data into variables:

($rw,$io_s_cur,$io_s_avg,$io_s_max,$kb_s_cur,$kb_s_avg,$kb_s_max,$svt_
+ms_cur,$svt_ms_avg,$iosz_cur,$iosz_avg,$qlen) = split(/\s+/, $line, 1
+3);

The last bit is the first 3 lines in this output; unless you need them for something I'd use the "last if" in the first code block above as a starting point; change last to next and modify the match m//

I for some reason am getting the following error from my perl program I am trying to use to gather info from our 3par units.

Could someone please explain why these "my" variable are not correctly declared?

 }

    close($output);

}


sub run_command {

my $system = shift;
my $protocol = 'ssh';
my $command = "statvv -ni";
my $space = " ";
#The following is bad but it works for now..
my $do_command = $protocol . $space . $system . $space . $command; 
my $cmd = new IO::Pipe;
$cmd->reader($do_command);
return $cmd;
   
    
}



thank you monks for all your help so far!

I suspect it's because the hash %parvalues; is what you're trying to 'my' each iteration of that loop not the element parelement. If you want to my it try doing that before you enter the <output> loop. FWIW: I'd do something like %parvalues = (); before the while which should prevent warn/strict from complaining; (This could be the wrong to define an 'empty hash'; I think it works the same as a list/array however)
