I am a new guy for the hyperic , I want to monitor the jboss log4j's log. But from the url of http://support.hyperic.com/display/DOC/Log4JLogTrackPlugin , there is a uncomplete example for it. From

Could someone tell me how to get the metric data like WARN or error info? Could some one give me a complete example ?

My initial means is to get the ERROR and WANR information from log4j's log(../server.log).But I do not know how write metric property, Could someont give me some help?

Many thanks!
