Load Sample Events

You can provide sample events to use in testing the new XMP file by searching through the event log store or by accessing a log file. Sample events provide a template against which you can test the parsing file as you construct it in the other wizard steps. You can also use sample events to test the parsing output in the final step of the wizard.

To provide sample events

  1. Open the parsing file wizard and advance to the Load Events step.

    The Load Events screen appears.

  2. Select the Log Store or Log File radio button in the Find Sample Events area.
  3. Click the appropriate arrow to advance to the wizard step you want to complete next.

    If you click Save and Close, the new file appears in the Parsing File User folder, otherwise the step you choose appears.
