[opennms-devel] Turn log entires to OpenNMS events

[Honia A <hon...@ho...>]

Hi all,

I have some subsystems installed on a CentOS 5.2 machine which generate and add log entries to a file called output.log which is located on the same box where I have my OpenNMS installed. 
Each line of entry has three values.

Now I would like to turn these log entries into events and configure OpenNMS to watch this log file and pick them up as events. 

So far, I learned this will be known as exernal event and I should somehow create a XML file in /opt/opennms/etc/events directory (i.e. Output.xml) and add it to the eventconf.xml file as an include file: 
<event-file>events/Output.xml</event-file> but I'm not sure how to do this... Can someone please help me with this?

Thanks in advance
