Description:
A recommendation of adding a feature that allows for the matching of keywords in system and/or MySQL logs to trigger alerts. For example, create a rule that will monitor the MySQL error log and give an alert when the keyword 'ERROR' appears in the log. 

This feature should be flexible enough to allow the matching of different keywords and different logs to suit the customers requirements.

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
There is some limited capability of doing this through the os::external path, but a full feature would be better for customer satisfaction.

Thank you for a reasonable feature request.
