We generally recommend monitoring event logs with another product of ours, Nagios Log Server - which would allow you to have historical data and all information of your logs in place. https://www.nagios.com/products/nagios-log-server/

If you'd still like to use XI, take a look at this article which explains how to monitor them pretty well - https://outsideit.net/real-time-eventlog-monitoring/

Just checking in since we have not heard from you in a while. Did @rkennedy's post clear things up or has the issue otherwise been resolved?
