logwatch parser dci

[lindeamon]

hi,

i want to use the 3 dci's for the logwatch parser but i can not figure out what to put in the "instance".
i have tried the full path with name as configured in the agent config and i have tried the file name inc. suffix and the status always changes to unsupported.

thanks,
lindeamon

Hi!

They are still not implemented. Agent shows them, but always returns an error.

i forgot to ask what will the "instance" be.

By default it will be file name (exactly as written in <file> tag), and you will be able to change it by adding name attribute to <parser> tag. For example,
for parser

<parser>
  <file>*System</file>
  ...
</parser>

instance name will be *System, and for

<parser name="SystemLog">
  <file>*System</file>
  ...
</parser>

instance name will be SystemLog.
