System log analysis

Logwatch is old, arcane, difficult to modify, seemingly abandoned upstream, and written in Perl.  I haven't found a decent substitute that addresses all of these shortcomings, so I started hacking up my own: http://tam.hiddenrock.com/projects/cyclops.  It's still rough, but I think it's ready for public consumption.  I'd appreciate it if you would check out the README and TODO, beat on it, let me know how it breaks, point out better Python practices, and suggest improvements.
Thanks!

Hi,
the correct transaction code for reading system log is <u><b>sm21</b></u> ...
other usefull transactions for system checks :
DB02 : table and indexes and monitor
DB04 : DB performance monitor
DB12 : Backup logs
DB16 : overview of database check messages
st02, st03 and st04 can also be usefull ...
these are all helpfull systemcheck transactions ... Quite usefull to have as an SAP BW specialist ..
hope this would help !
best regards,
Davy

  • AS Java system issue log analyse order

    Hi,
    Just I would like to structurize the AS Java system log analysing steps for start up and sudden issues - purely for my documentation purpose. I know there are various logs for AS Java. I would request you to give those logs one by one in order of analyse till finding out the reason of issue occured.
    like if this log is clear then go to this..if not here then go to the next ......
    I hope my question is clear.We consider Database is up and no issues.
    Please give your inputs and help out for the documentation.
    Thanks a ton to all

    Hi Daniel,
    As per Sunny message, you have to check with the Log files Under directory Work ( DEV_* files  ) and /usr/sap/SID/JC00/j2ee/JSPM/log

  • Retain Console System.log Events file for Usage Analysis

    I recently became interested in tracking the usage of some Apple computers. I discovered that the system.log events file in Console provides the login and logout times. So, I was able to use that to calculate how much time the computers are being used. This was very handy because there was data from October 2010 to June 2011. I went back a few days later and discovered the log files had been purged all except a few weeks of data. Is there any way to prevent them from being purged? Or, can I increase the size of the retained system.log file? What's the point of a log file tracking events if it's only going to be deleted? Alternatively there are programs designed to keep track of computer usage such as login and logout times as well as user usage by application. Would you recommend one of these?

    Thanks for bringing the typo to my attention. I've corrected that now. I'm reminded of the phenomenon by which we see and read words as groups of letters regardless of their positioning.
    I've not really had any specific system problems that cause huge log files. However, sometimes when diagnosing problems it's nice to have a long period of time to examine possible issues.
    Regarding your #3, opening .bz2 files... Have you saved these log files from Console and then tried opening them? It's just bazaar. The file opens to another file, then opens to another file, and so on. You never see the actual file contents. Others have observed the same thing.
    Regarding your #4, I created the script you mention. It's described here:
    http://www.resourcesforlife.com/docs/item4103
    However, I'd like to just go ahead and use the existing system.log events.

  • System.log - need information about some errors

    Hi there,
    one of my customer has problems with fileserver volumes.
    They unmount serveral times a day.
    He is using 10.39 and 10.45, under 10.39 the problems occur.
    It is currently not possible to migrate to 10.4.
    Fileserver 1 is a Helios EtherShare 4th generation
    Fileserver 2 is a W2K3-Server SP1, SFM installed
    umounts occur on both servervolumes mounted on the desktop.
    the system-log reports some errors, I can´t find a description on the internet... ;-(
    So I hope you guys can help:
    What does that mean?
    """AFP_VFS afpfs_Reconnect: Wrong version 4 or no more attempts 0"""
    or that
    AFP_VFS afpfs UserCommand: sosend failed for request 32 (sosend is a socket command)
    Is there a request-reference-list?
    What we actually did?
    turn appletalk off, deactivated spanning tree on the switches, check for virusscanners on the windows server, used the maintenance-scripts, checked access-rights on the servervolumes, installed the actual updates for windows and helios ethershare servers...

  • Does Sun ONE Web Proxy Server have built-in log analysis tools? What kind o

    Sun ONE Web Proxy Server automatically logs all requests using either the common log-file format or an extended log-file format. The extended log-file format includes the referrer field and user agent. You can also create your own log file format by selecting which HTTP fields you would like to log. A built-in log analysis program includes reports such as total number of requests, total bytes transfered, most commmon URLs requested, most common IP addresses making requests, performance during peak periods, cache hit rates, and estimated response time reduction. The items logged and the analysis program are completely configurable using the server manager's HTML form.

    Sun Java System Web Server is a web server; it serves web pages to web clients. Sun Java System Web Proxy Server, on the other hand, is a web proxy server; it routes requests/responses between web servers and web clients.
    You can configure Web Server to act as a simple reverse proxy by installing the Web Server 6.1 Reverse Proxy Plugin. This doesn't provide any of the forward proxy or caching proxy functionality found in Web Proxy Server.
    Both Web Server 6.1 and Web Proxy Server 4.0 are supported on Solaris 10.

    Was a change made to any of the profiles outside of RZ10? You might want to compare what is out on the file system to what is stored in RZ10 to see if there are any dramatic differences. If not, then you should be able to get rid of the message by importing the current profiles.
    Hope that helps.

  • Log Analysis tools with cgi programs (slightlyoff-topic)

    Has anyone used a log analysis tool successfully in conjunction with
    WebEnterprise to track what users are doing?
    We have a WebEnterprise app that does not really have any of that sort of
    tracking built into it, so we're interested in trying to extract as much
    usage information as we can from the web logs. Since there is little use of
    HTTP POST operations, most of the information we would need is in fact
    available in the URL, but we have not yet found the "ideal" tool for doing
    this analysis. We do not want to spend a lot of time with PERL or something
    writing our own tool, but many of the commercial ones seem to have limited
    ability to deal effectively with parsing arguments to CGI programs in the
    URL.
    Any suggestions on products that do this well with any easy-to-user admin
    interface and (preferable) nice-looking HTML reports?

  • Total lock-ups with fan running - translate system.log file please!?

    Hi, all. My late 2005 2.3 gig dual G5 has been experiencing random lock ups for as long as I can remember. My system is up to date and I have tested each pair of the 5 gigs of ram that I have and the system freezes with each pair. It can happen at any time, when I am doing absolutely nothing, for example, overnight. I am at my wits end!
    Here's the system log file for the latest freezes. Can anyone tell me what's going on here??? I really need to get to the root of this problem. Thanks so so much in advance.

    Hi-
    The machine seems to be having trouble with loading certain drivers, but, as this isn't a crash log, and doesn't show the "hang-up" or freeze, it's hard to tell.
    Noted possibilities are:
    -Microsoft keyboard (possible USB power problem)
    -firmtek driver (from archive) questionable due to the "archive" annotation
    -Wacom tablet driver, causing system problems
    Running in Safe mode without freezes would help to determine if one of these drivers is the problem.
    Other possibilities are outdated drivers, or simply a need to reinstall the OS.
    If unnecessary, removing the driver(s) would be a good idea.
    External USB and Firewire devices are all suspect, should all be disconnected, revert to Apple keyboard, and test system performance. Adding one device at a time, and testing each will be necessary to clear each device.
    I have experienced system trouble when a Wacom tablet was not connected, but the driver was left installed.
    Disabling the driver from Startup items may be necessary to test without the Wacom tablet connected.

  • SAP System Log on issue using Crystal Reports:

    Hi All,
    I have installed Crystal reports, Business Explorer and Business Objects XI  Integration. But when I tried to create a new report using SAP Table, Cluster or Functional, I couldn't able to select SAP System since it shows SAP System Log on selection was blank.
    Note: I have undergone the following trials:
             1) All the trials are done after connecting to the Internal Vpn.
             2) Re-installed the Crystal reports, Business Explorer and Business Objects XI. But result was the same.
             3) Compared all the setting parameters with another System which works fine.
             4) Only difference seems to be that I am using Win Vista and other one is Win XP OS.
             5) Tried in the net for Win Vista specific patches or software to run the crystal report but couldn't helped.
    Did any one come across similar experience or is there any idea why it could be? Thank you in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Sujith

    Hi Don,
    Thank you very much for your reply. I was wondering from where we could download XI R2 ( 11.5 ) SP 2. I have tried downloading Software Forces .rpt Inspector 3 Professional suite (for CR XI R2) . But this doesn't seems to be the right one. Also I have cheked in sdn Crysal Report 2008 download (https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm ). But no luck. Thanks again.
    Best Regards,
    Sujith.

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.2 can't run 'X11.app' (with system log)

    Hello everyone, English is not my mother tongue so may not be exactly correct, sorry about that.
    Background:
    I have a MacBook White (13-inch, Mid 2009) that isn't unibody, and was running Leopard 10.5.
    I am the only one that will use the Mac and my user account is as the 'admin'.
    When I was using 10.5, I could open the 'X11.app'.
    But few days ago, I did a clean installation of 10.6.2 Snow Leopard from the USD$29 disc.
    After that I installed the iLife '09 (the gray disc bundled with the MacBook),
    and I cloned the drive to my ext. FireWire HD immediately after the installation of SL and iLife'09 by using the CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner).
    After that, of course, I was going to install the apps I need, and update the software.
    _But the problem appears:_
    When I try to open the 'X11.app', the X11 icon begins jumping on the Dock, but nothing happens.
    Jumping and jumping... finally, it doesn't jump any more, with just the X11 icon on the dock.
    What's more, there is no white dot under the icon, which means the app isn't running at the moment.
    I right-clicked the icon, it shows me 'application not responding'.
    So, I open the *Activity Monitor*, and I can see there are two apps related to X11 are running:
    (1) X11
    (2) X11.bin
    Please see below for the system log (around 1min. log, starting with the time when I open the X11)

    It seems that the processes are repeating themselves,
    so I decide to end them in the *Activity Monitor*.
    For 'X11', I have to force quit.
    For 'X11.bin', 'quit' is enough.
    But after that, it seems that the processes are stilling running:

    As I've said, I have a clone of 10.6.2 on my ext. FireWire HD.
    So I've tried to boot the MacBook with the key 'option' pressed in order to boot from the clone.
    What surprises me is that I can open the X11 without any problem.
    And I've tried to open a new user account to test.
    Even if the account isn't 'admin', the X11 can be opened too.
    What this phenomenon tells me is that maybe there is an app(s) that I installed will make the X11 not open.
    I've Googled the problem and tried the following methods:
    (1) Reinstall the X11 from the Snow Leopard disc.
    (2) Log in as the 'root' user, go to *System Preferences* to create a temporary account (e.g. named 'test') so that I can delete my current account (e.g. named 'User') (I copied the UUID and pasted it into TextEdit, saving it on my different partition of ext. FireWire HD.). Then I open a new account with the same username (named 'User') and paste the UUID I previously saved to the newly created account (named 'User'), and then redirect the home folder path to the original home folder (the account named 'User' that I deleted).
    (3) Create an account for testing (e.g. named 'test'), set it as admin. Then log in as the 'root' user, to use 'ditto' command in Terminal to copy my home folder to the account named 'test'. After that, I make the account for testing (account name 'test') have the permission to read and write the files by pressing 'command + I' the home folder, and then set the user 'test' having the permission to read and write and apply this to all the enclosed folder.
    NONE of the above has worked.
    So what can I do in order to make my X11.app work again?
    Thanks in advance!!

    But you have it running in the other account. With X11 problems, this is as easy as it gets.
    I hope this problem can be solved soon...
    Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure you are going to have to use the Terminal.
    I see, thanks for the info.! (I am new to the Mac since 2009 )
    The only one that would cause any problem by being removed is ".Trash". You don't have any of the other files that Bob is talking about. It would be annoying for any heavy Terminal user to lose those dot files, but perfectly safe.
    There is no need to even attempt to backup anything in /tmp.
    Thanks for the info.!
    Try this. In System Preferences, select Sharing and enable "Remote Login". Login to that Standard user who can run X11 with no problem. Then, just as a test, run "ssh <mainuser>@localhost". Verify that you are in the home directory of the user with the X11 problems. Don't do anything yet. Just type 'exit' to logout.
    Reboot your machine. Login as the Standard User. Run "ssh <mainuser>@localhost" again. This time, run the "rm .<somefile>" on all those dot files (except for .Trash and maybe .CFUserEncoding). This time they should all stay deleted. Follow Bob's advice too and do "rm Library/Preferences/org.x.X11.plist". Type "cd /tmp" and delete everything you can find in there. You can't do any damage there. Type "exit" to quit the ssh session.
    Now logout of the standard user and log back in to your primary user and try it again.
    I am now at the standard account called 'test' and browse this web page using Safari through Wi-Fi.
    4 things:
    .bash_history
    .DS_Store
    .fontconfig
    .Xauthority
    ==========
    With the '.fontconfig', I can't delete it from the Terminal:
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:~ Michael$ rm .fontconfig+
    _+rm: .fontconfig: is a directory+_
    (At this moment, I Googled the 'rm' command and found these web pages:
    http://ss64.com/osx/
    http://newsourcemedia.com/blog/basic-terminal-commands/
    That's why I try the 'rmdir' and 'sudo rm'.
    But NONE of these command helps)
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:~ Michael$ rmdir .fontconfig+
    _+rmdir: .fontconfig: Directory not empty+_
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:~ Michael$ sudo rm .fontconfig+
    +WARNING: Improper use of the sudo command could lead to data loss+
    +or the deletion of important system files. Please double-check your+
    +typing when using sudo. Type "man sudo" for more information.+
    +To proceed, enter your password, or type Ctrl-C to abort.+
    Password:
    +Sorry, try again.+
    Password:
    _+rm: .fontconfig: is a directory+_
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:~ Michael$ sudo rm .fontconfig+
    _+rm: .fontconfig: is a directory+_
    =========
    For the '/tmp':
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:~ Michael$ cd /tmp+
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:tmp Michael$ cd /+
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:/ Michael$ sudo rm -rf /tmp+
    Password:
    +Michael-Leungs-MacBook:/ Michael$ +
    So, for the steps you provided, I can follow all the steps except the one '.fontconfig'
    Hope the information I provided above can help you to help me!
    Thank you etresoft!

  • I am getting a warning need more space on my disk. I have checked the Console and there have been 4000 thousand messages in my system log in the last 2 days. I have emptied as many files as possible.

    Hi
    I am getting a warning on opening my mac saying I need more space as my setup disk is full.  I have emptied many files as well as my Trash.  I am planning to get an external drive for my photos, but it has been suggested that I check Console and under the system log the following message (of which they say 4000 messages have been logged in 2 days) '06/06/2014 16:08:23.341 com.apple.dynamic_pager: dynamic_pager: Need more space on the disk to enable swapping'.  This is a copy of one of the items.  It is from the system log.  I really do not think I have enough files to warrant this warning, with the exception of photos.  My storage shows 143 MB free out of 120.47. Thanks for any help.

    First off, no MacBook Air can run 10.3 or earlier.
    Secondly, are you sure you only have 143MB of storage free?  That's seriously low.  With MacBook Airs of 120 GB hard drives, or even 140 GB which is often the case when it says out of 120, you shouldn't allow your free space to go down below 20 GB.  MB is 1024 fold less than a GB.  So if you really have 143MB free on a MacBook Air, you are long past the minimum space you should be keeping it at, and need to start clearing a lot of space now*:

    I'm asking this thread be moved to the MacBook Air forum,a as we can't say for certain what you have when you post in the 10.3 or earlier forum.

    regarding mountain lion server: clients experience intermittent service connections. the server system log has the following error- Client handshake failed (6):113: Server not accepting client connections. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - thank you

    Hi Jason
    I was getting the same behavior after Apple support had me delete some plist files to get Airplay going. I was also getting the following error:
    the error occurred while processing a command of type 'writesettings' in the plug-in 'server vpn'
    I went into ~/Library/Preferences/ and /Library/Preferences/ and deleted every plist contating the word server. I had to re-set up my server (meaning walk through some intial steps) but all of my settings were still there after that and everything started working again.
    Just a thought, obviously try at your own risk but it worked for me.
