system log and application log monitoring
Hi,
Up to now i didnt have time to look at hobbit "non-stable"; I started playing with "msgs" log reporting.. henrik's work is remarkable :)
(this might have already been discussed on the list)
as for me ,system log monitoring should be a default, which is not the case for my network...
well.. i was glad to find OS log files definitions in client-local.cfg Could there be basic OS pattern definitions in hobbit-client.cfg's DEFAULT ?
next step: application log monitoring let's say i have 100 servers (differents OS of course) running mysql, and i want to follow "ended" in /var/log/mysqld.log ->setting up 100 entries in client-local.cfg doesn't seem great, could there be some kind of grouping in client-local.cfg (PAGE actually..) ? (i guess this would required to processing client-local.cfg before transferring to the clients..)

You'll have to contribute some, then. I don't really know what people are looking for in their logfiles.

Welcome to the world of configuration "classes".
Step 1: Put a "CLASS:mysqlservers" on those hosts in bb-hosts. Step 2: Put a section in your client-local.cfg file with [mysqlservers] logfile:/var/log/mysql/status.log Step 3: Configure hobbit-clients.cfg for these logfiles.
Only problem is that you'll need todays snapshot for this to work.
