Grep a String

Hi Guys,

Is it possible to grep only the Request ID 000000000038775 from the string:

19:37:22.429 [Aug-20-2015] INFO BMCREMEDYSD INPUT-ACTION Failed to retrieve Remedy Incident Modification record: 000000000038775 org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: Read timed out - complete 

Please help me! Its Urgent!

To answer your question:

grep 000000000038775 file

If you asking to extract just the "Remedy Incident Modification record", something like:

sed -ne 's/^.*Remedy Incident Modification record: \([^ ]*\) .*$/\1/p' file

If it's the only 15-digit-only string:

grep -Eo '[0-9]{15}' file
000000000038775
