  Is there a way to find a list of "failures" in a given time frame
other than grepping through log files?  You can do an "mminfo
-q'pool=onsite,incomplete'" and such but that won't tell you if a client
failed to back up because it was unreachable, etc.  I'm trying to get
this script very clean and to the point but I'm missing a way of
reporting failures since I can't find them anywhere but in the log
files.  I can do a notification that writes to /nsr/logs/dailylog.`date`
but then when the script runs at 6:00am I have to dig through
yesterday's log for errors since 6:00am yesterday and add that to new
errors from today's log.  Extremely hackish.

Any good suggestions?
  Robert

 perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(41*2),sqrt(7056),(unpack(c,H)-2),oct(115),10);'
