Login to the client host, agecanonix and look for these files:

cd ~/client/tmp && ls -al *status *cfg

Then you may want to try what you see in the .cfg by hand.  You should 
see something like this in the .cfg file:

log:/var/adm/messages:10240
trigger WARNING|ERROR
log:/home/sirt/log/alarm_tina.log:10240
trigger major|critical

Which should mirror your config.  Then try grepping by hand to see if 
you get what you want:

egrep -ei 'WARNING|ERROR' /var/adm/messages

And you are using Hobbit 4.2.0, if not then you need to upgrade.
