Jason, as usually, it depends.
About Operlog analysis, it depends on the response-time you need. At different customer sites I use automation product (BMC, IBM, Broadcom) in order to catch specific messages and react asap with specific actions or simply sending SMS/Mail. Some others use external product (Splunk and similar) to collect, correlate messages, showing nice graphic screens and sometimes react. About the second question, I don't think there's a simply solutions with SORT because the text of the message is really variable, the word count is message specific and finally we cannot be sure that a "number" as last word is a continuation hint. Could you please better explain your goal ? Best regards.
