Swatch, the Simple Watch Daemon is a program for UNIX system logging, originally written to actively monitor messages as they are written to a log file via the UNIX syslog utility. Swatch was designed to keep system administrators from being overwhelmed by large quantities of log data. It monitors log files and acts to filter out unwanted data and take one or more simple user specified actions based upon patterns in the log. Swatch can monitor information as it is being appended to the log file and alert system administrators immediately to serious system problems as they occur.
