Hello Managers
  I have a situation where to find out two classes of servers whose hostnames end with 'ts' and 'ss'. Let us say 'abcdts1',loikts2', 'poidts3','dfgfss1','reoess2', 'eoeoss3' etc. Now I have to grep the two seperate list of servers.I am using the following commands.Most of the servers will have a digit at the end.
   
  bash-2.05# cat /etc/hosts | awk '{print $2}' |grep ts | uniq
  bash-2.05# cat /etc/hosts | awk '{print $2}' |grep ss | uniq
   
  Is there any better way? After that I have to make an entry in /etc/hosts as shown in all of the servers.
  # vi /etc/hosts
   
  <IP address> <hostname>
   
  There are nearly 75+40 servers that end with 'ts' and 'ss'.Of course there is a digit like 1 or 2 or 3 at the end of (almost) every hostname.
  I will summarize and thanks in advance.
   
  Rob
