5.8 Summary of Events
The CLI can show you a summary of the events contained in a binary log file:
wsea sum [index] [input inputfile] [out | outhtml outputfile] [filterstatement]Correctable events are not shown. Section 8.8 tells how to interpret the summary and describes circumstances that can cause unexpected summary output.
To generate a summary with another syntax, see Appendix E.
By default, SEA creates a tallied list of all the events in the binary event log files. However, you can generate an indexed list by adding the index parameter.
If you want indexed output, the index parameter must immediately follow the sum command verb. Otherwise, SEA assumes you are using an "index" filter keyword instead.
By default, the summary command processes the system event log. If you want to process a different binary log file, you must use the input keyword and specify the input file. See Section 5.10.1 for more information on input files.
By default, output from the summary command is displayed on the screen. To save output to a file, use either the out or the outhtml keyword and provide a file name. See Section 5.10.2 for more information on output files.
You can identify a subset of the events from a binary event log file that you want to view a summary report for by defining a filter. For more information on filtering see Section 5.10.3.
