Logmatch

The logmatch feature enables you to monitor contents of a logfile. The agent must be built with support for the ucd-snmp/logmatch module (included as part of the default build configuration).

• Monitors the specified file for occurances of the specified pattern REGEX.
• A maximum of 50 files can be monitored per agent.

If no logmatch directives are defined, then walking the logMatchTable will fail (noSuchObject).
