Introduction

The Charon Log Monitor is a utility that monitors the Charon emulator session log files and that sends alerts in case a warning or error message is detected. It can also send alerts for informational messages when the emulator is started or properly stopped, when a CPU BUGCHECK or a CPU Halted message is detected or even if someone connects or disconnects from the emulator console.

...

Alerts can either be an entry added in the Windows Application Events log file, an email or a .BAT or .PS1 custom script. A mechanism can be set in place to stop sending alerts in case too many alerts are sent during a specified interval.
