Monitory Unix Log File

Post by pklingam » 23 Nov 2008 11:46

Hi,

I want to monitor couple of active log files (Text) of Unix systemsin Control-M. Now doing "telnet & tail -f" on each system.
Instead would like to consolidate in Control M.
Pls advice.

Thanks

Here is the principles:

1. Install Agent on Unix machine
2. create "tail" job, (and redirect output to file - optional)
3. In the "tail" job, set "On" parameter, when find anything you want in output, "Do" anything you want. :) (alert, corrective actions...)
