Monitoring log files under custom folder

[raylee]

Hi,

Today is my 1st day I step into Zabbix world. The 1st task I want to use Zabbix is to use it to monitor application logs under 3 windows servers.

There is no log rotation under our applications, and log files per daily are created under folder format "YYYY-MM-DD"

for example :
App1
- D:\App1_Log
- 2014-10-30
- All_20141030.txt
- Error_20141030.txt
- 2014-10-31
- All_20141031.txt
- Error_20141031.txt

Can Zabbix with agent installed on windows go into a "date format" folder and monitor "pattern" within log files?

Would you give me some advice on this question?

Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Thanks for your attention in advance,

Ray

Use the logrt function of zabbix.


It will look for the most recently modified logfile, so for example it would look something like

logrt[C:\All*,ERROR,,,skip]
or logrt[C:\Error_*,error,,,skip]

Hi,

Thanks for your prompt reply. But can I set zabbix to go into
"date format named" folder automatically and get all logs be monitored?

Thanks a lot

I think my question should be changed to "can logrt support regular expression on folder"

Thanks,
