那么我们有取代的方案吗?有,那就是日志分析工具。这些日志分析工具会详细地查看日志,同时分析这些日志,并且把分析的结果通过邮件的方式发送给 root 用户。这样,我们每天只要查看日志分析工具的邮件,就可以知道服务器的基本情况,而不用挨个检查日志了。这样系统管理员就可以从繁重的日常工作中解脱出来,去处理更加重要的工作。
在 CentOS 中自带了一个日志分析工具,就是 logwatch。不过这个工具默认没有安装(因为我们选择的是“Basic Server”),所以需要手工安装。安装命令如下:
[root@localhost Packages]# yum -y install logwatch
安装完成之后,需要手工生成 logwatch 的配置文件。默认配置文件是 /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf,不过这个配置文件是空的,需要把模板配置文件复制过来。命令如下:
[root@localhost ~]# cp /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logwatch.conf /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf
#复制配置文件
[root@localhost ~]# vi /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf
#查看配置文件
LogDir = /var/log
#logwatch会分析和统计/var/log/中的日志
TmpDir = /var/cache/logwatch
#指定logwatch的临时目录
MailTo = root
#日志的分析结果,给root用户发送邮件
MailFrom = Logwatch
#邮件的发送者是Logwatch,在接收邮件时显示
Print =
#是否打印。如果选择“yes”,那么日志分析会被打印到标准输出,而且不会发送邮件。我们在这里不打印,#而是给root用户发送邮件
#Save = /tmp/logwatch
#如果开启这一项,日志分析就不会发送邮件,而是保存在/tmp/logwatch文件中
#如果开启这一项,日志分析就不会发送邮件,而是保存在/tmp/logwatch文件中
Range = yesterday
#分析哪天的日志。可以识别“All”“Today”“Yesterday”,用来分析“所有日志”“今天日志”“昨天日志”
Detail = Low
#日志的详细程度。可以识别“Low”“Med”“High”。也可以用数字表示,范围为0~10,“0”代表最不详细,“10”代表最详细
Service = All
#分析和监控所有日志
Service = "-zz-network"
#但是不监控“-zz-network”服务的日志。“-服务名”表示不分析和监控此服务的日志
Service = "-zz-sys"
Service = "-eximstats"
如果想要让这个日志分析马上执行,则只需执行 logrotate 命令即可。命令如下:
[root@localhost ~]# logwatch
#马上执行logwatch日志分析工具
[root01ocalhost ~]# mail
#查看邮件
