RE: [hobbit] sending particular alert message to particular users

["Camelia Anghel" <canghel (at) cjh.org>]

Does anyone have such a unix script? I would not want to reinvent the
wheel if I can modify it...
Thanks,

I don't think you can do this via the standard alerts function (because
all log messages are grouped into the one "msg" test).  However, you
might be able to do what you want if you call a script and have the
script examine the message content and then send the email to the proper
user.

Hello,
This is how my hobbit-client.cfg and hobbit-alerts.cfg look and I would
like to send the first LOG to some users and the second LOG to different
users.
How do I send an alert based on a warning expression?
 
Hobbit-client.cfg
  HOST=myhost.org <http://myhost.org/> 
  LOG /var/log/messages %failure*|%failed*|%error*|%Warning* COLOR=red
  LOG /var/log/www_server_4881.log %exceeded* COLOR=red
 
Hobbit-alerts.cfg
HOST=myhost.org <http://myhost.org/> 
          MAIL user (at) something.org SERVICE=msgs REPEAT=30m COLOR=red
RECOVERED
 
Any help, suggestion will be appreciated
 
Thanks,
