powershell select field

I got a file with two fields delimitered by various length of space in between.

CA    CADevserver1
CA      CADevserver1
CA        CADevserver1
...

I need to get the second field only, this is the powershell command I use:

PS C:\> gc "c:\dropit\\tmp.txt" |foreach {($_ -split '\s+',2)[1]} > temp.txt

The idea come from this link, thanks for that:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2503010/extracting-columns-from-text-file-using-powershell

Though the second field content are saved in temp.txt, the lines in the file cannot be processed properly by the following code:

"
@echo off
for /F "tokens=*" %%A in (temp.txt) do call :processline %%A

pause
goto :eof

:processline
set pcpserver=%1
echo "pcpserver name is :"%pcpserver%

goto :eof

:eof
"
The above script suppose to loop each line but it did not, I do not have time to troubleshoot, the workaround is to copy the lines from temp.txt and paste to new file and save the file, use the new file to process, that works. there might be some hidden characters in the temp.txt

oracle dba_hist_sysmetric_summary

found this blog is helpful to get CPU and IO statistics on oracle database. http://shob-dbadmin.blogspot.ca/2012/12/how-to-find-total-io-of-database.html courtesy to  Shomil Bansal , below are hist writing, not mine. How to find total IO of the database instance Total IO of database instance is sum of the physical reads, physical writes and redo writes. There are several views to find these values. v$sysmetric  - Reports metric values for only the most current time sample 60 secs. v$sysmetric_summary  - Reports metric values for time sample of 1 hour. v$sysmetric_history  - Reports metric values every 60 sec from the time instance is up. Better way to analyse IO using this view to take deltas between two time periods. dba_hist_sysmetric_history  - All the above views are refreshed when the instance is restarted. This view, part of AWR, stores the historical stats. I have used this view for my report. Query: ====== set lines 350...
