Hi,
I have to manually check a lot of logs. I am skilled enough to write a script to do a lof of the work but I am sure there are resources already out there--no need to reinvent fire if you do not have to.
Can someone provide me with the pertinent resources?
Thanks,
I don't think anyone can help you without knowing more. If they are specific kind of logs (such as Apache logs, MySQL logs, or something else of a standard format), then let us know what kind they are. Better yet -- look them up on Google.
I need to monitor /var/log/messages and disk usage/trends. Can someone suggest some script/program that does this.
The df command is very useful for disk usage. You can use that with cron to track usage history.
I currently use the df command. What I am looking for in a script is something that can check the disk space values daily and report trends/anomalies. Is there something for this?
