hi,

Thanks for the script, but i have one question. for example, if there is continously log file, on every check, it will start in the last line where it stopped ?

regards sai

any feedback ?

--tail_log_num starts from the tail of the file.

It should work when log file is not very big. If the file is as big as GBs, there might be a performance issue.

i agree with you, but in case the file is not fed ? it will return whole lines already read !! :/
