Chapter 24. Log Analyzer

WebSphere V3.5.2 provides a new problem determination tool, the Log Analyzer.

The Log Analyzer is a GUI tool that permits the customer to view an activity.log file for errors and sort log entries based on severity, process ID, thread ID, etc. More importantly, this tool has a simple XML database behind it that permits the customer to analyze errors and offers additional information such as why the errors occurred and how to recover from them.

This chapter takes an in-depth look at the Log Analyzer. Note that this is a technology preview product of WebSphere V3.5.2. For this redbook, most of the Log Analyzer testing was done while using the WebSphere Advanced Edition.
