I have the following devices in my system:
hdiskpower10
hdiskpower100
hdiskpower101

Now i only want to get the information about hdiskpower10,so i use "lspv | grep hdiskpower10",but it outputs information about all the 3 devices:

hdiskpower10 vg1
hdiskpower100 vg32
hdiskpower101 vg32

What can i do to only output the information about hdiskpower10. Thanks in advance.
 
Just append a space at the end of the word to be searched for.

Code:
lspv | grep "hdisk10 "

Regards,
Khalid
 
lspv | grep 'hdiskpower10' | awk {'print "lspv " $1'} | sh

Like that?

Not sure what you really need.
 
lspv hdiskpower10

lspv | grep -w hdiskpower10

$ echo "hdiskpower10\nhdiskpower100\nhdiskpower1000"|grep -w hdiskpower10
hdiskpower10
