Comprehensive History Log Collection, Analysis, Reporting, and Archiving For IBM AS/400 Systems

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.

EventLog Analyzer collects the History logs from IBM AS/400 systems. EventLog Analyser application can analyze, report, and archive the history log events received from the IBM AS/400 systems.
