AIX alog pattern match
|
|
|
| I'd like to print each individual error from the AIX console log
for instance, there is an error at Wed Jan 16 at 00:44:18
the record finished either at EOF, or when the next error occurs, in
this case, (we have some Firmware problems :) 05:45
will be the record separator.
I don't like to put output to files if I can avoid it so it'll be
alog -o -f /var/adm/ras/conslog | awk '
I've got this bit to work (Korn Shell) counting all the records for
each calendar day, but would like to put something more meaningful in
the alert to Nagios. Yes, I know I don't need to use "set --" but I
just found it so wanted to play.
date_string=$(date +"%a %b %e")
set -- ${date_string}
w _day_name=$1
shift
day_of_month=$1
shift
month_name=$1
num_console_records=$(
alog -o -f /var/adm/ras/conslog | \
awk '
BEGIN {num_recs=0}
$1 == "0" && $2 == "'$w_day_name'" && $3 == "'$day_of_month'" && $4
== "'$month_name'" {++num_recs}
END {print num_recs}

I was waiting to see if anyone else could figure out what you were asking. I
couldn't make head nor tail of it. You may want to try again. This time posting
some small sample input that isn't line-wrapped by your newsreader (that part is
VERY important!), along with the expected output and the rationale.
Saying things like

while no doubt being gratifying to "Nagios" is just not informative to most of
us reading the post. Similarly:
[color=darkred]
> there is an error at Wed Jan 16
doesn't tell us what it is in that record that tells you there's "an error".
Tell us exactly which records you want to select in your sample input based on
which values of which fields and what exactly you want to do with [which fields
of] those records.

The conslog is normaly not the primary source of error information on
AIX. Thus you should take a look at the error log as well as the
possiblity to get information directly from the error daemon to a
syslog or nagios
or quick search:

I look through syslog, and the AIX errorlog, but, things do appear on
the console log too.

thanks for the input (not!)
I just decided to count lines instead.
Sorry about the CRLF's. That's google Groups for you.
Nagios is a monitoring service.

IMHO the conslog is NOT desinged as an logging facility. Thus it is
only for information.
This said. Even the error message in your OP should have an entry in
the errlog.
Thus the first point is to look at the error log which will tell you
if you have a hardware , software, permament, ... problem
For people working with syslog or a centralized syslog facility you
can configure the errlog facility to send error messages to the syslog
as well.
