About the SEOSDATA Import Utility

The import utility, LMSeosImport, uses a command line interface and supports both the Windows and Solaris operating systems. The utility performs the following actions:

• Connects to the SEOSDATA table to extract events in the manner you specify
• Parses the selected SEOSDATA events into name-value pairs
• Submits the events to the CA User Activity Reporting Module through the SAPI Event Sponsor or the iTech Event Sponsor for insertion into the event log store

The events are mapped to the common event grammar (CEG) that forms the basis for the event log store's database tables. You can then use the predefined queries and reports to gather information from your stored events.
