check_logfiles

[Tim Dunphy]

Hello,

 I am trying to use the check_logfiles plugin that I found on the exchange to find some critical patterns in the logs. 

 Here's the run of the command I am trying 

 [db:~] root% /opt/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles --logfile=/u01/app/oracle/admin/ecom/bdump/alert_ecom1.log --tag=oracle --rotation=linux --criticalpattern='ORA-00600' --warningpattern='ORA-*'
OK - no errors or warnings|oracle_lines=0 oracle_warnings=0 oracle_criticals=0 oracle_unknowns=0


 This is what is in that logfile - 

[db07:~] root% grep 'ORA-00600' /u01/app/oracle/admin/ecom/bdump/alert_ecom1.log
ORA-00600 - This is only a test.. please disregard


But as you can see it's clearly not finding a pattern that I've specified.

Does anybody out there have enough experience with this plugin to know what may be going wrong here? Trying to get this figured out.

Thanks
Tim
