Using Text log

Post by Mogge »

Hello all...

I'm using the test method "Text Log" to check for an existense of a text in a Log file but having trouble with the "Any new events" and "Last new events".

The thing I'm looking for is only the existense of a specifik text string in the Log file regardless of the "new factor". I'm using the command "Query User > TextFile.Txt" on a Citrix server to enumerate the users currently connected onto the server witch creates a list of current users. It's scheduled to run every 5 min. HostMonitor is then suppose to check the text file for the existense of some named users (external consulting) and give us a note when the user starts using the Citrix server and when the user stops using the Citrix server.

Please....


Kind Regards
Mogge

Looks like you need to use "Compare Files" test method instead of "Text Log" method.
Comare Files test method has "Alert when file contains string" option.
