Log Monitor Table

You can use the Log Monitor table to configure the agent to monitor system log files for regular expressions. You can also monitor file directories for size and contents.

Class: logMonitorEntry

Instance: value of logMonitorLogFile attribute for the specific log monitor entry

For example, you can configure the agent to monitor the /var/adm/sulog log file for the regular expression su.*fail. Whenever the agent finds a match, it sends an SNMP trap to the configured management systems.

Each row of the Log Monitor table represents the monitoring of a log file for a particular regular expression.
