thank you.. I tried with --report=long but that stopped alert generation. Below is the command parameter i am currently using to alert for the logs.

check_nrpe!check_singlepattern! -a '--logfile=/var/opt/log/logtest -criticalpattern=/*'!!!!!!

Check_single patter is nothing my check_logfiles command.Below is what i have defined in the nrpe.cfg.

command[check_singlepattern]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles $ARG1$ $ARG2$

How/where did you run it with the option added? I was able to modify nrpe.cfg on the client, restart the service, and return all lines:

command[check_singlepattern]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles $ARG1$ $ARG2$ --report=long

[naranant]

i have updated the nrpe.cfg file with the below line

command[check_singlepattern]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_logfiles $ARG1$ $ARG2$ --report=long and restarted the nagios service.

After i have added three separate lines in the log file with the text -- test1 , test2 and test3 respectively and got the below output.

how can we make the ouput comes in three different lines and how to avoide the "n" getting update against each line

You can try taking a look at this older forum thread which solves the /n issue by adding a sed command in the xi_service_notification_handler in the commands.cfg.

NOTE: Make sure to keep a backup of your original xi_service_notification_handler in case it doesn't work and you have to revert back.

Let me know if that works for you.

I would have to test it, so I can provide the correct solution.

Can you give me the xi_notification_handler command that you are using to produce this?

Also, the email template that you are using for this alert.

Thanks!
