    Hi Wu,
     We're doing almost the same thing here. We use swatch within syslog-ng to
    filter and act upon keywords such as "File System Full". Please see either of
    these sites for more info:
    My site (with a quick how-to)
    http://www.ip-solutions.net/syslog-ng/syslog.html
    or Nate Campi's site (where I got most of the ideas from)
    http://www.campin.net/
    
    HTH,
    Harry

    *> Hi,
    *>      In our Data Center , we build a central log analysis system. We use
    *> syslog-ng as our central log server . Now about forty web servers, database
    *> servers and application servers forward their syslog records to the central
    *> log server.  Logwatch is used as log analysis software, it analize syslog
    *> record it received and send result to the correspondent system administer.
    *> We use logwatch's default configuration.
    *>       What's  confusing me now is how to move on . Because  logwatch is too
    *> simple , it can not find out all the problems ,such as "file system is full
    *> ". Can any experienced person give me some advice.
