Splunk is pretty slick software. It is fast, efficient, scalable, and reliable. It basically collects machine information from nodes, whether a log file, the results from a command that is run, or other platform specific information. You can set up alerts in Splunk to take various actions when certain conditions are met (i.e., certain log entries). If I were connecting Splunk to Remedy, I would start with indexing the arerror.log file. You can then set up events on that source type when certain log entries are indexed.
