I am interested in profiling events. I like making histograms of patterned events as a way of guiding efforts and understand what events are important in the logs. So how would one use SEC to profile logs to arrive at top-N sources, and top-N events? Below is what I am thinking.
# report every 24 hours. type=Calendar time=2 0 * * * desc=Report events action= = { for ( sort keys %sources ) { \ printf "Source %s Frequency %d arrival rate %5.2f \n", $_, $sources{$_}, $sources{$_}/86400; \ } \ for ( sort keys %events ) { printf "Event %s Frequency %d arrival rate %5.2f\n", $_, $events{$_}, $events{$_}/86400; \ } \ for ( sort keys %eventsources ) { printf "Event-sources %s Frequency %d %5.2f\n", $_, $eventsources{$_}, $eventsources{$_}/86400; \ } \ } ; \ = { %sources=(); %events=(); %eventsources=(); } # Look for Cisco style events type=single continue=takeNext ptype=regexp pattern=\d+:\d+:\d+.*?(\S+)\s+\d+:.*?(%\S+-\d-\S+): .* desc=$1:$2 context = ={ $sources{$1}++ ; $events{$2}++; $ $eventsources{"$1:$2"}++ } action=none Regards, Tim Peiffer Networking and Telecommunications Services University of Minnesota/NorthernLights GigaPOP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
