I am looking for tools that will allow me to aggregate and query event logs from multiple servers.
In my case, this is a webfarm and I need to be able to query the event logs for all of them in one place.
Can anyone recommend such a tool?

12:02 - Restart failed
12:01 - Restart attempted
12:01 - Restart failed
This might go on for days...

One approach would be to coalesce matching entries that repeat within some time delta of each other, something like
12:03 - Restart attempted [3 times since 12:01] 12:03 - Restart failed [3 times since 12:01] 12:02 - Something 11:23 - Restart attempted... .

Any step...
