Custom Pattern Configuration Window
This window lets you create a pattern that will be used to interpret information from a non−standard syslog
file. A sample line is shown un−parsed in the Sample Log Line. The Pattern line contains Fields and
Delimiters that determine how each data element in the sample line will be parsed and placed in a column in
the Event View. The Parsed table shows how the results will be presented in the Event View panel.
You can access this window from the Config button in the Log Manager Parameters window or the Log
Manager Parameters − New window.
