dmesg (Kernel Ring Buffer) monitoring plugin
I'm missing a dmesg plugin in CMK that monitors my configured levels and reports WARNING or CRIT status for new entries.
Currently, I'm using a custom script that writes my desired levels to a log file, which I then monitor using Logwatch.

Mohamed Saleh AdminHi Robin,
Thanks for posting on our Ideas Portal!
To get a better picture of what the monitoring should do, could you tell us what your currently look for with Logwatch or provide the most important things you want to be alerted about with a native plug-in? -

RobinThe most important thing: Possibility to set the different dmesg levels which I need to minitor with a warning level I set.
dmesg -l (or --level) and one or more level ("dmesg -l crit,alert,emerg"). Currently a helper script writes every 5 minutes the output of my wanted levels to a /tmp file and logwatch watches the log file.
