According to the documentation, the Events system can be used to monitor
log files:
"The Events System supports event data streamed in from an agent and
attached to a resource. These events can be any type of useful
information and include a timestamp, a severity, the message and an
event source. The event source allows for a resource to have different
types of event data streamed in and allows the UI to let the user
filter.
A common use of the events system is to track important log file
messages. The Event System can be used to track log files for specific
messages matching severity and/or expressions to get the most useful
data. Included log tracking classes make it easy to support tailing log
files and turning messages into RHQ events. Events could also be created
from asynchronous messaging systems such as a JMX notification or a
messaging provider such as JMS."
How can this be used to monitor an applicaton's log file? E.g.
montioring the tail of the log file watching for Error messages.
