how can I receive alerts for every new trigger matched for 'LOG'

anybody?
I'd like to get confirmation, one way or the other,  Hobbit at its current
form won't work for this purpose, before I go down the road of custom
scripts and such..

the LOG check clears itself after 30m, if it didn't see the offending
entries again. If this 30m can be changed to 5m or 6m, then, I can get new
offenders (as it will trigger status change for certain).

Sounds a bit like a question I posted two weeks ago: Hobbit responds
on status-changes (green-.yellow->red->etc). You can make it detect
several issues, but when another issue comes up and the status itself
does not change, you will not be notified.

Although the GROUP-keyword for DISK and PROC adds granularity, this is
not possible for LOG (yet?!) and although the GROUP-keyword is very
powerful, the above remains so this does not solve your problem.

hi, there,
I have a LOG check for "error: #1" "error: #2" in a log file. We'd
like to
receive email alerts for each every trigger matched, "%error: #" since
we
needs to know the all the error # reported.
Right now, it generates email alerts. but not for every new
triggers.  No
alerts are generated for a newly matched trigger log entry if the

STATUS is

red/yellow already.  In my thinking, if the LOG check itself can be
RECOVERED after 5m (I believe the default is 30m), this ought work.

Does anybody know how to change the default from 30m to 5m (for a
single
check/test)?
Any alternative/recommendations to get the desired results?  I
initially
thought a 'creative' combination of 'REPEAT=5 DURATION<10' would do
it...
