Alering on log file entries

[Wild, Phil]

Hello all,
 
I have a requirement to monitor a number of log files on one system and
to page different people depending on what it sees in the different
files. From what I can tell, this functionality is not available. Am I
wrong here?
 
My thoughts on setting this up would be to clone and modify the existing
bb-msgs feeder script to accept a different config file and report as a
different test and then through hobbit, set up alerts to the different
group for the additional test.
 
Is this a sound approach or is there a better way?
 
Cheers
 
Phil
