Hi Galen,

the comments in analysis.cfg suggest to use upper case for noexist.
Did you try that as well?

Hey,
Having a hell of a time with this.  I need to alert when a file exists.
According to the manpage I should be able to use the "noexist" test.
However, this doesn't appear to work.  I've tried several combinations and
cases,  Has anyone actually gotten this to work?
In my client_local.cfg. I have a stanza similar to:
[odamid00-prod-us]
file:`ls /pbr/biconfig/940/Lev1/Web/Logs/SASServer*/heaps/*.hprof`
and in analysis,cfig I have:
HOST=%(odamid0).*
       FILE %/pbr/biconfig/940/Lev1/Web/Logs/SASServer*/heaps/*.hprof red
noexist
I've tried using upper case and reversing the order but I cannot get it to
turn red when the file exists.  It does, however, give me a green dot and
show that it sees the file so I'm confident it's at least partly working.
NB: I'm using the latest Terabithia RPM.

PS: the man page and the analysis.cfg file disagree on the order of [color]
and [things to check] from other experience, the man page is what is
correct.  I think someone may have previously pointed this out.
