Default Parameters for ErrorLogTest

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the ErrorLogTest.

• The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed. 

• In the LOGFILE text box, specify the name of the log file to be monitored.

• Enter the full path to the specified log file in the LOGDIR text box

• In the EMPTYFILE text box, enter either true or false. The entry true instructs the eG system to monitor even empty log files. The entry false instructs the eG system to ignore empty log files. By default, the EMPTYFILE text box will hold the value false. 

Note:

If a log file to be monitored is not found or is empty, then the errcount will be 0.

• In order to track the errors logged in a log file, you need to specify the pattern for the error logs  in the ERRPATTERN text box. For eg., if the error logs contain the string "Error", then your pattern specification could be *Error*. A leading '*' signifies any number of leading characters, while a trailing '*' signifies any number of trailing characters.

• Once the above value is provided, click on the UPDATE button to register the changes made.
