[xymon] log parsing on windows
Hi all,
Is it possible to monitor log files (not event viewer) under windows machines? For example *.log files containing particular patterns (error strings…) I'm trying Bbwin client but using central mode I'm only capable to parse event log.
Maybe someone has an external that affords this feature…
thanks in advance!

Hello,
Here a script in VBS to scan ASCII log from BBWin:
To be modified
The default error color Color_KO = "yellow" The name of your XYMON test Column = "mig_log" The path to your log file: MIG_LOG = "E:\Logs\MIGFlow.log" Test on the key word to be trapped (here ERROR): If Mid(Line,25,5) = "ERROR" Then
Cordialement, Regards,Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

You are able to do this in central mode:
Below you can find a working example;
Entry ~/server/etc/client-local.cfg [servername] log:C:/temp/test.log:30720
Entry ~/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg LOG C:/temp/test.log %red.stuf COLOR=red
Result can be found in the msgs service of that host:
<< System logs at Fri Jan 27 15:34:30 2012
Critical entries in C:/temp/test.log red.stuf
