Short description
This module for Alignak collects the monitoring logs (alerts, notifications, …) to log them into a dedicated file.
You can plainly use the powerful of the Python logging system thanks to the use of a logging configuration file which will allow you to define when, where and how to send the monitoring logs ….
Known issues
This module is not compatible with Python 2.6 if you intend to use a logger configuration file as this feature is not available before Python 2.7 version. If you are still using the old 2.6 version, upgrade or define the logger parameters in the module configuration file.
Configuration
Once installed, this module has its own configuration file in the /usr/local/etc/alignak/arbiter/modules directory. The default configuration file is mod-logs.cfg. This file is commented to help configure all the parameters.
To configure Alignak broker to use this module:
edit your broker daemon configuration file
add the module_alias parameter value (logs) to the modules parameter of the daemon
To configure this module to send its log to the Alignak badckend:
edit the module configuration file to set the Alignak backend parameters (eg. url and login information)
To set up several logs collectors:
copy the default configuration to another file,
change the module alias parameter (logs_bis)
edit your broker daemon configuration file
add the new module_alias parameter value (logs_bis) to the modules parameter of the daemon
