The link that John just sent out contains an example of how to do this.

Read the section on "How to check for the presence of a file"   Just modify the 
bash script to include your grep command.

Also, I would recommend a expression grep, it should be more efficient.

egrep  'ABC|DEF|GHIJKL'

Also, I believe you can use regular expressions in SystemEdge log file rules.

User Group,

I am trying to determine if it is possible to have multiple search criteria met 
before a match is determined.  Here is a cmd line filter example:

grep ABC | grep DEF | grep GHIJKL if all three exist in a line within a log 
file generate a trap.

There is interest in setting up a log watcher to only generate a trap when an 
entry matches 3 different criteria as shown above.  Is this possible?

Thank you,

Peter Robinson
