Comprehensive Log Collection, Analysis, Reporting, and Archiving For IBM AS/400 Systems
EventLog Analyzer collects the logs from IBM AS/400 systems. EventLog Analyser application can analyze, report, and archive the log events received from the IBM AS/400 systems.
Now, the IBM AS/400 variants V5R1, V5R2, V5R3, V5R4, V5R5, V6R1 logs are supported. Like any other host logs, the IBM AS/400 logs can be imported and can be archived. The functionality available to other host logs like, filter the logs sent to database, creating reports profiles and creating alert profiles are available separately for IBM AS/400 logs
The IT auditors will demand the enterprises to review the log file report output regularly. EventLog Analyzer generates the required reports for review. Manual review is not possible, since the format of the log file is difficult to read. Using Event log analyzer application you can generate special reports using these logs. You get instant access to variety of reports for history log events generated for start and completion of jobs, device status changes, system operator messages, and attempted security violations.
The special reports generated using history logs are:
- Successful Logons
- Successful Logoffs
- Unsuccessful Logons
- Job Logs
- Device Configuration
- System Time Changed
- Journal Logs
- Hardware Errors
IBM AS/400 History Logs
History Log Management of IBM AS/400 systems is an important requirement that the enterprises cannot overlook. History Logs contain information about the operation of the system and system status. System administrators look at history logs as a critical source to troubleshoot performance problems on AS/400 systems across the
network. The need for a complete history log monitoring solution is often underestimated; leading to long hours spent sifting through tons of logs to troubleshoot a single problem. Efficient history log analysis reduces system downtime, increases network performance, and helps tighten security in the enterprise.
