Re: [Nagios-users] Syslog Event Log
Hi, > Is it possible to use Nagios to capture Switch/Router Syslogs/eventlogs/error logs. If you collect the messages in logfiles, you can use http://www.consol.com/opensource/nagios/check-logfiles to scan these files for critical or warning patterns. It was written to replace the Tivoli logfile adapter. Gerhard - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

Re: [Nagios-users] Syslog Event Log
This is such a common topic! I just gave a presentation to the local LUG a week or two back regarding using Syslog-ng and Logmuncher for log monitoring. http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/AISTWiki/bin/view/AIS/Presentations Perhaps you will find it useful.

Re: [Nagios-users] Syslog Event Log
Thanks syd, But as Tivoli is taken care by a separate team, can u suggest me an open source which can analyze the logs, preferably having a web interface.

Re: [Nagios-users] Syslog Event Log
Hi Syd,
But my case is little different. I got my Tivoli doing my Monitoring
(NMS) job. I am in search for a Syslog server, for my Cisco devices,
which can send alerts on critical error and warnings.
So would like to have your advise on the same.
Thanks and Regards.
Manoj

I have a central management server. It runs Nagios, Munin, Cacti, and
Syslog-ng. I have Syslog-ng configured with these lines.
# Begin
source remote { udp(); tcp(port(514) keep-alive(no)); };
destination remote_hosts
{ file("/var/log/remote_hosts/$HOST/$FACILITY.log"); };
log { source(remote); destination(remote_hosts); };
# End
These lines configure Syslog-ng to accept connections from remote
systems and
place the logs in to a host specific directory. I run syslog-ng on all
my
linux servers.
I have not setup the monitoring yet, it is on my todo list. There are a
number
of log checks in the Nagios Exchange.
Enjoy,
Syd
