fine. Thanks. I just wanted to confirm if this message is related to cronjobs. Becasue there are hundred's of cronjobs runnning in back ground. That should not get affected.
How will find if the cronjob is running or not? I also need to know where can i find the cronjob log. Please let me know.

logtool
logtool(1) General Commands Manual logtool(1)
NAME
logtool - parse and filter syslog files
SYNOPSIS
(stdout) | logtool -[args]
Logtool is a command line program that will parse logfiles into a more palatable format. It will take anything resembling a syslog or mul-
tilog file, as well as unformatted ASCII, and crunch it into one of the following formats for your viewing pleasure:
ANSI (colorized for easy "at a glance" viewing)
ASCII (e-mail reports/term's w/o color)
CSV (spreadsheet/database imports)
HTML (for generating web pages)
RAW (for no good reason)
OPTIONS
-o [ ANSI | ASCII | CSV | HTML | RAW ]
Allows you to specify the output format to be one of the following: ANSI (default), ASCII, CSV, HTML, RAW. Options are not case sen-
sitive (ie: -o CSV and -o csv should yield the same results)
-t [ long | short ]
Allows you to specify the time display format to be one of the following: (Long [default]) Mon Dy HH:MM:SS or (Short) HH:MM
-b Causes logtool to beep on RED events (ANSI output only). This is usefull when you want to monitor a logfile on an ongoing basis, and
wish to have your terminal beep whenever something out of the ordinary happens.
-s Causes logtool to not display the syslog "source" field
-p Causes logtool to not display the "program" field
-c [/path/config.file]
Allows you to specify a config file other than the default /etc/logtool/logtool.conf
-i [/path/includefile]
Allows you to specify an alterate file containing regex's for inclusion [default=/etc/logtool/include]
-e [/path/excludefile]
Allows you to specify an alternate file containing regex's for exclusion [default=/etc/logtool/exclude]
-n Causes logtool to skip any attempts to resolve IP->Hostname by the various modules (handy when your DNS is down temporairly).
-v Set logtool to operate in verbose mode (does nothing currently)
-V Causes logtool to print it's version information and exit
-h Display the help message
SUGGESTED USAGE(S)
As a 'live' logfile monitoring tool:
tail -f /var/log/messages | logtool -o ANSI -b
To generate colorized webpages of logfiles:
cat /var/log/messages | logtool -o HTML > /home/httpd/html/logs/messages.html
To generate reports via a cronjob:
retail /var/log/messages | logtool -o ASCII | mail -s "Daily report" someuser@somedomain.ext
CONFIG FILE
/etc/logtool/logtool.conf
The config file should be commented to the point of being self-documenting, so we will not comment very extensively on it here. Suffice to
say, this is the place where you should configure 99% of your runtime options for logtool. You may also have a collection of different
default configurations, and select amongst them by the '-c' option of logtool.
AVAILABILITY
Logtool is known to compile/run on all UNIX flavors using a 2.95.x GNU C Compiler, the GNU Make utility, and a proper ANSI C library (glibc
is recommended, but not required). Specific reports of success include FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, SunOS, AIX, SCO, and of course, any
known flavor of Linux (including at least 2 embedded system variants).
SEE ALSO
regex(7) for help with constructing regular expressions for the include/exclude/colors files. If you find no regex manual on your system,
try 'apropos regex' and see what you get, or as a last ditch, 'man grep' should at least point you in the right direction.
You can also find a somewhat better bit of documentation in the textfile 'logtool.txt' (usually in the /usr/doc/, /usr/share/doc/ or simi-
lar tree on most Linux distributions). If you don't know where to look, you can probably find it by typing 'locate logtool.txt' at the
command line.
