check_log multiple pattern and filtering

[Tobias Exner]

Hi list,



1.

any suggestions how to check multiple pattern with one command?


example:

check_log -F /var/adm/messages -O /var/adm/nagios_messages -q 
"error|connection timed out|SCSI transport failed"




2.

Is there a way to ignore lines from the result?

example:

check_log -F /var/adm/messages -O /var/adm/nagios_messages -q "error"

This will search for all errors.
But what can I do to ignore lines with with spezial errors like

Dec 3 07:26:23 SERVER rmclomv: [ID 431010 kern.error] CPU_FAN @ 
MB.P0.F0.RS has FAILED.




regards,

Tobias
