Hi,
I'm trying to monitor LOG files on a Linux OS via the Hobbit client
monitor 4.2.0. I have some issue : file information are not send back to
the server. I've checked the ML & the conf file :
# ************ IMPORTANT ***************
# To monitor a logfile, you *MUST* configure both client-local.cfg
# and hobbit-clients.cfg. If you configure only the client-local.cfg
# file, the client will collect the log data and you can view it in
# the "client data" display, but it will not affect the color of the
# "msgs" status. On the other hand, if you configure only the
# hobbit-clients.cfg file, then there will be no log data to inspect,
# and you will not see any updates of the "msgs" status either.
BTW, client-local.cfg & hobbit-clients.cfg does not exist anymore ;).
Anyway, I put this on my client side localclient.cfg file :
# FILE Check
FILE /var/log/messages SIZE>0 MTIME<1200 yellow
FILE /var/log/messages red "timed out!"
FILE /var/log/messages red "abort!"
# LOG
LOG %/var/log/messages %(I/O|read).error COLOR=red
ll /var/log/messages
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 5530 May 29 16:25 /var/log/messages
Hobbit is in the "adm" group, it can read the file. So why my Hobbit
server keep saying "No files checked" ?
Thanks by advance!
