Roger, I've posted a short HOWTO for using the ODM to perform error notification at: http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/AISTWiki/bin/view/AIS/AixErrorLogCustomization You could easily adapt this to trigger a passive Nagios service. Also note that syslogd logs to /dev/null by default on AIX. I strongly recommend that you configure syslogd and optionally use a central syslog server. I normally advocate using a log processing software in conjunction with Nagios. It isn't practical to configure a service for every matching log condition in Nagios. Having a single service triggered by a log processor, resulting in Nagios managing the notifications is much preferred. I prefer Logmuncher for reporting with syslog-ng as the backend. Let me know what you end up doing on AIX. I'd be keen to hear what you decide on.
