I've hooked up Zenoss' Zensyslog so that messages from a distributed list of client machines are all conglomerated into events on the Zenoss server. This is all fantastic, and I can bump messages by simply using the logger command:
logger -t webserver_is_down "The web server is down"
What I'd like to be able to do is also post an event that clears for when the webserver comes up.
logger -t webserver_is_up "The web server is up"
I've tried to set this up with Event classes but with no dice. Is there a Syslog level that correlates with Zenoss' clear/0 level? Is there another easy way to do this?
Thanks for any help you can give!
