About the log file monitoring

[albertxiao]

I try to monitor one log file with the following configuration

Item
Description 'ZABBIX Serverhp log oracle access monitoring'
Type ZABBIX agent (active)
Key log[/tmp/php_errorlog,ORA-]
Type of information Log
Update interval (in sec) 3

Trigger "Trigger for PHP Oracle Access"
Name Trigger for PHP Oracle Access
Expression {ZABBIX Server:log[/tmp/php_errorlog,ORA-].nodata(0)}#1

I can get the triger while the logfile reports an error.
I wonder how I can monitor the numbers of error reports in the logfile so that I can use some graph to show it out.

Hello, I think you can use the count functionnality.
It's described page 125 of the pdf documentation.

Something like :
{ZABBIX Server:log[/tmp/php_errorlog,ORA-].count(DURATION) should return you the number of values collected by your item during "DURATION" seconds.
You can also specify a second parameter to specify a regexp to count, it can allow you to count for example the number or ORA-001, ORA-002, ... separatly if needed.

Hopping it helps.
