For our unix boxes I use syslog-ng which forwards all the logs to a central logserver. Then I use a Splunk server to go through and map to certain traps. I also use Splunk for the Windows events to trigger traps to Spectrum.

I used kiwi server syslog, and convert syslog messages to traps. This is a clean solution for this problem syslog -> trap -> Event -> Alarm??? If you use text files as log, you can make a script to read the file and send trap for every log line in the file El 01/10/2009, a las 23:01, Lentz, Jay escribió: What type of log files, text, event log, etc..? From: F J Rutcho [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2009 3:09 PM To: spectrum Subject: [spectrum] What do you use to scrape logs on Windows servers? All, Presently we're using MOM 2005 to create Log Files Scrapes for specific text patterns. I'm curious to know if anyone else uses a simpler tool that integrates with SPECTRUM to scrape LOG Files on servers running Windows. We have many servers in our environment that are running some "flavor" of Windows, and MOM isn't the easiest nor most user-friendly product to configure. A simpler solution that can be customized per server would be ideal. Other than SysEdge, what do you use? Your help is appreciated.
