Hi Wang, I see from yoir example you are looking for 'Exception'. So if I am correct you are hoping to use monit to monitor application layer logs.
Usually IT ops are more interested in the health of infrastructure, network, OS. Devs are more into application logic failures. Monit is perfect for the first. For the second Monit will need to not only pack all exceptions in one email but also exclude certain false positives result of developer bugs (something is log as ERROR when it should be INFO for example. It will also need to send the alert to a different mailing list (for devs and not ops as thi is application layer alert). We are currently using http://thinkinginsoftware.blogspot.com/2011/01/use-logmonitor-to-email-log-errors.htmlto monitor application logs. If on the contrary you need to match specific application exceptions and send them to Ops it makes sense to me to join them but consider most likely you want to act quicker than 30 min for example.

We can maybe add the same to Monit in the future.

For example, Check file my-log-file with path /var/log/my.log every "*/30 * * * *" If match "Exception" then alert There may be many alerts within 30 minutes cycle, for each alert monit will send an email, it is annoying sometime. So is it possible to merge them into one email? Monit is almost perfect for our current situation.
