Ditto on Splunk. If you work for a non-profit or education they have a
nice discount.

I've found a small ELK stack reasonable (Kibana is pretty useful for
finding stuff), but needs to be monitored lots (ie, logstash will stop
working for no reason, same with elasticsearch). TBH, splunk is very
very good at this and easy to set up. It *can* be expensive, but if it's
worth money to you to know about things, I'd look into it as well.

I'm looking for a tool that might handle this nicely.
I have some asterisk log files that are generated by daemontools'
multilog. The problem is that daemontools rotates logs every few
minutes at the volumes I do so a single call can be scattered across
several files. Total files might be a few GB.
Does anyone know a good tool that let us search across multiple
files for strings and display them? (along with nearby lines). The
basic requirements
are to trace a problem call by finding a number or call id and
jumping around checking the 10 lines or so on each side of it.
What I've looked at so far:
* The team currently use vi which doesn't support multiple files well
* I had a look at use multiple search in less but this was pretty
slow and
didn't seem to work nicely.
* logstash and Elasticsearch would probably be the longer team option
although there doesn't seem to be a good built-in asterisk filter for
grok.
* lnav ( http://lnav.org/ ) looks nice but doesn't have support for
multilog format and doesn't appear to actually search multiple
generations of files.
