19 - What's tenshi?
20
21 This is a Gentoo hosted project initially developed for Gentoo infrastructure
22 servers.
23
24 Tenshi is a log monitoring program, designed to watch one or more log files for
25 lines matching user defined regular expressions and report on the matches. The regular
26 expressions are assigned to queues which have an alert interval and a list of
27 mail recipients.
28
29 Queues can be set to send a notification as soon as there is a log line assigned
30 to it, or to send periodic reports.
31
32 Additionally, uninteresting fields in the log messages (such as PID numbers) can
33 be masked with the standard regular expressions grouping operators ( ). This
34 allows cleaner and more readable reports. All reports are separated by hostname
35 and all messages are condensed when possible.
36
37 The program reads a configuration file (tenshi.conf) and then forks a deamon for
38 monitoring the specified log files.
39
40 Please read the example tenshi.conf and tenshi.8 man page for usage
41 instructions.
