Issue/Introduction

Introduction:

It is possible to read from and report on multiple log files.  The default/sample logreader perl script reads from one log file.  It applies to the EPAgent of various versions in general.

 

Instructions: (using Weblogic logreader in the example below)

-- Create different pairs of weblogicLogReader.cfg and weblogicLogReader.pl files with unique names, representing the different weblogic instances (eg, webLogicXLogReader.cfg and weblogicXLogReader.pl, and webLogicYLogReader.cfg and weblogicYLogReader.pl) 

-- Run the perl scripts from the command line as follows:

perl WebLogicXLogReader.pl _optional_flags_

perl WebLogicYLogReader.pl _optional_flags_

 

Additional information:

            The location for the log reader perl script is in the <EPAgent home>/epaplugins/weblogic/weblogicLogReader.pl
