Re: [hobbit] File monitoring.



Do you mean like this ?

FILE %/ftp/input/.*.gz RED mtime<7200 or

FILE %/ftp/input/.* RED mtime<7200

For wildcard, you want '.*' to represent any character instead of '*' alone. I have a handful of this kind of FILE checks.

    hi all,

    Trying to get file monitoring to work. Works find with fixed filenames
    but I need to match a pattern in a directory and find the oldest file.
    If more than say 7200 sec old in mtime then generate an alert.

    in client-local.cfg I have

    file:`ls -t /ftp/input/* | tail -1`

    which produces the oldest file name on the web page.

    I have the following in hobbit-clients.cfg

       FILE %/ftp/input/*.gz RED mtime<7200

    but I get no alarms.

    Any ideas ?
