[hobbit] LOG Pattern IGNORE syntax

[Asif Iqbal]

OK here is another PCRE issue with IGNORE pattern

I have this on ~hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg

HOST=host.domain.net
LOG /var/adm/messages "%(?-i)WARNING|(?-i)NOTICE|(?-i)ERROR"
IGNORE=%Power.*Supply.*0.*NOT.*okay

But I still get alert as following

&red Critical entries in <a href="/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?CLIENT=
host.domain.net&SECTION=msgs:/var/adm/messages">/var/adm/messages</a>
&red Jul 13 15:04:34 host envctrltwo: [ID 771032 kern.warning] WARNING:
Power Supply 0 NOT okay

I did a pcretest and it did match so why is hobbit still alerting?

(hobbit)@hobbit:~/server/etc$ pcretest
PCRE version 4.5 01-December-2003

  re> "Power.*Supply.*0.*NOT.*okay"
data> Jul 13 15:04:34 host envctrltwo: [ID 771032 kern.warning] WARNING:
Power Supply 0 NOT okay
 0: Power Supply 0 NOT okay
