    Our company has chosen HP's ITO as our master monitoring tool for our mix of
    IBM, SUN, and HP servers. We're working on the log messages that we want to
    be handled by ITO....... The folks setting this up want me to supply them
    with all the likely error messages (with the exact syntax) that I want to be
    notified of/paged on from the system log files. Turns out this isn't so
    easy....and the HP ITO support area is useless (at least from my searches)
    in this regards.
    
    Initially I thought their scripts could look for just "WARNING" or "ERROR"
    or "CRIT", but not after looking at a bunch of logs, I'm not so sure that
    will pick up enough. Any help/thoughts (besides abandoning ITO) would be
    appreciated.
    Is there any template for ITO to monitor system logs? Is there any way to
    avoid re-engineering the wheel in regards to ITO?
