Can we use /usr/local/nagioslogserver/etc/patterns?

[eloyd]

Is /usr/local/nagioslogserver/etc/patterns safe to use for locally generated, complex patterns? We used to use all sorts of directories over the years to put patterns, but we see latest version finally has a sane, logical place. We're just concerned it's not safe from Nagios LS upgrades overwriting things we put in there.

Any thoughts?

Yes, it is safe for users to use. Just don't prefix any of your .pattern files with xi_, and you'll be good to go.

Thanks!
