# log-search
This is a bash utility for getting & parsing logs from both local & remote sources.
## What makes this utility useful?
### Filters
This utility comes with a few log filters baked in, allowing for specific types of logs to be returned (aka logs from specific messages & services). Making for log gathering for troubleshooting to be much easier for support personel in large organizations and allow for ample information to be gathered before escalating to T2 or T3.
## Nodes (Local & Remote)
On nodes themselves the utility allows you to grab logs from two different sources:
- Journal
- Messages file
### Journal
On nodes themselves the utility can grab logs from both the journal & messages files.
### Syslog Server
#### Syslog Node Logs
If you use a syslog server you can also remotely query logs from the log directories.
