Setting the Input Source

To set the input source for the events, use the ALTER command with the EMSLOG

attribute, for example:

-> alter, emslog $data.appl.emslog

This command sets the input source to the file $data.appl.emslog.

The default value for the EMSLOG attribute is $0 (local collector).

Viewing Filter Parameter Values

To view the current values of the EMS Analyzer filter parameters, use the INFO

command:

-> info

This command displays the filter parameter values and other information about the

specified distributor. In the example, since no distributor name is specified, information

about the assumed distributor is given.

The filter parameter values are displayed only when the specified distributor is the

current EMS Analyzer distributor and when the filter attribute is set to the EMS

Analyzer default filter EMSAFLTR.

For more information about INFO command and complete output display examples, see
