I am curious to the reason of the Full Log display. Would it be when a
Alert match is found you can see the other log entries surrounding that
long entry ?
The idea is that when you're troubleshooting a problem, having access to
the latest data from the logs can be helpful. There could be something
in that logfile that gives you a hint about what's wrong, even if though
it isn't something that you explicitly want to trigger a yellow or red
alert.
In other words, if I can figure out what a problem is from clicking on
the "msgs" display, then I don't have to logon to the server (via one
or two terminal servers).
My concern is if I have 5+ log files being monitored, the msgs report
may bury the user with too much information.
True. I should probably provide some way of just having the links to the
full logs instead of always including them on the msgs display.
