Dennis,

Are these unix servers?

We have a directory that includes our monitoring scripts (as well as some other stuff)
that is cross-mounted across all of our unix servers. We run the same monitoring
scripts on all of our databases. The scripts need to be made generic to do so.
We pass in SID names, etc.

Alert log monitoring is one of the scripts in this directory.

Hi All,
Currently I am the only DBA for the 15 productin databases in our company. I have written shell scripts on all database servers to parse the alert.log file and look for Oracle errors and send page/E-mail if problems are found. While this works it is sometimes painful to maintain - if I want to change something I have to go to different servers to change the scripts one by one. I figure it would be nice if we can have a centralized solution where I can monitor alert logs remotely and don't have to hop from server to server. Are there any tools/scripts that enable DBAs to do this? I know OEM can do that with the Advanced Events but now you have to buy the Diagnostics pack for that.
TIA
