File existence monitoring

[Stuffle, David (Corporate)]

Hi,

I'm wanting to check the existence of specific files in a directory and
that they are at leat 1K in size.  I have this in the hobbit-clients.cfg
file:

 

HOST=hostname1

        PROC httpd

        FILE %^sdc_.* MTIME<3600 TIME=W:0730:2200 red

        FILE %^dcs1xaz9saotnw713cmtaut8c_6w3j.* red size>1K
TIME=*:0730:1800

        FILE %^dcsaplg0kbotnwvrj16x28msg_1i2n.* red size>1K
TIME=*:0730:1800

        FILE %^dcsdq1p60cotnw32xcywlbisg_9i5q.* red size>1K
TIME=*:0730:1800

        FILE %^dcsmnj8yecotnwbcevyym9t8c_4d7i.* red size>1K
TIME=*:0730:1800

        FILE %^dcsp6ro5kbotnwvjh6yh0dmsg_3j1y.* red size>1K
TIME=*:0730:1800

        FILE %^dcsu5rokrbotnwb01tmd19mat_4w7s.* red size>1K
TIME=*:0730:1800

 

And this in client-local.cfg:

 

[hostname1]

file:`find /usr/local/webtrends/sdc/weblog -type f | xargs ls -1tr |
tail -1`

file:`ls -1 /usr/local/scripts/logs/dcs1xaz9saotnw713cmtaut8c_6w3j*`

file:`ls -1 /usr/local/scripts/logs/dcsaplg0kbotnwvrj16x28msg_1i2n*`

file:`ls -1 /usr/local/scripts/logs/dcsdq1p60cotnw32xcywlbisg_9i5q*`

file:`ls -1 /usr/local/scripts/logs/dcsmnj8yecotnwbcevyym9t8c_4d7i*`

file:`ls -1 /usr/local/scripts/logs/dcsp6ro5kbotnwvjh6yh0dmsg_3j1y*`

file:`ls -1 /usr/local/scripts/logs/dcsu5rokrbotnwb01tmd19mat_4w7s*`

 

 

They all show up under the files column.  To test it, I deleted the file
specified in the last line from the directory, but all Hobbit does is
remove it from displaying.  I want it to go red saying that the file
does not exist.

 

The man pages says "By default, a warning is triggered for files that
have a FILE entry, but which do not exist."  But, I'm not seeing this
occur.

 

Any ideas?
