4.2.3. Formatted Summary
This command displays a summary of the currently selected formatted log file or
files. If a file was not selected via the Select Formatted command under the File
menu, then the current raw log file, if there is one, is used as the default. The
summary is a report of the total number of each entry type that occurs in the file.
In the case of I/O error entries there is a unique list of device paths, products,
product qualifiers, logger events, device types and device qualifiers and the
count shown for the number of times each occurs in the file is shown in
parentheses. The summary data reflects totals of all log entries from all selected
files, integrated together and treated as one file. This summary information is the
same information that is used in the Formatted command under the Filters -->
Display menu to specify exactly what subset of entries should be displayed via
the Formatted Log command under the View menu. Refer to those commands
for more details.
The following figure shows the screen that is displayed in the GUI when the
Formatted Summary command is selected. Note that information is only given
for entries that are actually in the log file. The information in this example
represents what the output might look like if the raw log file shown in the
previous example was formatted without filtering out any entries. As mentioned
above, the numbers that appear in parentheses (nn) give the count of the number
of occurrences of the various items in the log file.
In this screen, the user has the option to scroll through the summary information
using the scroll bar at the right, perform a case-sensitive search (Search and
FindNext), print the information to a printer (Print), save the information to a
file (SaveAs), close the window (Done) or ask for help (Help).
