check event log

[Tristan Drinkwater]

Morning all (depending where you are in the world..)

I'm trying to catch all error and warning logs from application event folder but I'm struggling with the filter+generated bit.

In a nut shell all I want is anything red that happened within the last 24 hours.

Here is my syntax I'm running from the libexec folder till I get it right;

./check_nrpe -H ip -p 5667 -c CheckEventLog -a filter=in file=application filter.eventType==error filter+generated=\<24h MaxCrit=1

This return's 12 errors. Only 3 of which happened in the last 24 hours.

It seems to be either not using the filter I've detailed or making up its own one!!

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance :)
