Sakai Startup Logs

Often after I've started up Sakai I'll tail(1) the logs so I can see how the startup is going, however by default Sakai spits out quite a few informational messages and it is easy to miss the important stuff so now I tend to watch the logs with the following command:

tail -f logs/catalina.out | grep -v INFO

which doesn't display all the INFO messages but still shows me anything serious, and all the internal tomcat messages about how the startup is progressing. I know I could change the logging (log4j) but this is a simple trick which still allows me to look back at the info messages to check things.
