similar to HP-UX Event Monitoring Service

Does RedHat have something similar to what HP-UX has for monitoring hardware.

I would like to set it up on my linux boxes, that EMS has saved my butt a couple of times already on my HP systems...

Hi,

If you're using HP hardware (DL*, etc) you can use Insight Manager 7.

Use this link to find your hardware/os version:

This link shows an example of the packages to install for AS 3.0:

HTH,

There is nothing build into the OS.

What I have done is scan the /var/log/messages and other log files for important messages and send an email to my cell phones mail account when trouble is detected.

err=$(cat /var/log/messages | grep keyword | wc -l)

if [ $err -ge 1 ]
then
#send the email
fi
