Hi,

the exclusion is supported in monit already via the "ignore match" option:

--8<--
check file syslog with path /var/log/syslog
    ignore match "^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ monit\[[0-9]+\]:"
    if match "^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ mrcoffee\[[0-9]+\]:" then alert
--8<--

Regards,
Martin
