I have bash script to collect all hardware info but following memory info piece is missing, so this is what i am trying to do.

Following command give you status of DIMM memory module,

[root@Linux ~]# hpasmcli -s 'show dimm'

DIMM Configuration

Status: DIMM is degraded

want to extract Size: and Status: and need that in single line, like following

Final output will look like following. I can use other language like python or perl but i wrote in bash so i need something in bash, i can do multiple for loop and play with variable to make it work but i need something easy or in-short single like like sed/awk. how can i achieve that in sed/awk?

8192MB - Ok
8192MB - OK
8192MB - OK 
8192MB - DIMM is degraded

Oh boy i think i did it :)

[root@Linux ~]# hpasmcli -s 'show dimm' | egrep -e Size -e Status | awk -F: 'print $2' | sed 's/^[ t]*//' | awk 'NR%2printf "%s - ",$0;next;1'
8192 MB - Ok
8192 MB - Ok
8192 MB - Ok
8192 MB - DIMM is degraded

Still i would like to know if anyother way we can do that, i am not going to answer my question i will wait for other folks to chime in.
