My Nagios Log Server is monitoring logs of Remedy application hosted in a particular host. The log server is able to receive the logs successfully. I have set the NRDP server so that my Log server can talk with Nagios xi. However I am not able to create a query that will filter the logs based on certain keywords. Please help me creating the query. Once the query is created I will then be able to create an alert and send it via NRDP. Thanks.

I would like to see a screenshot of the log you're looking to query for. Thanks!

Attached is the snapshot of logs of Remedy. I am trying to filter all the logs that do have a specific error code in its message content. (For Example - (ARERR 8760))
However I am not able to build a query to do this. Please help. Thanks.

Have you tried wrapping your query in quotes?

For example, you might do a query for "ARERR 8760". Quotes around a string of text tell Nagios Log Server to interpret as one piece - have you tried this already? What was the result?
