Abstract
Tools for use in obtaining useful information from processed log messages generated by a variety of network platforms (e.g., Windows servers, Linux servers, UNIX servers, databases, workstations, etc.). The log messages may be processed by one or more processing platforms or “log managers” using any appropriate rule base to identify “events” (i.e., log messages of somewhat heightened importance), and one or more “event managers” may analyze the events to determine whether alarms should be generated therefrom. The tools may be accessed via any appropriate user interface of a console that is in communication with the various log managers, event managers, etc., to perform numerous tasks in relation to logs, events and alarms.
