Counting Records in a Snapshot File—Rcounter

After the second snapshot generation internal process step (rextract and rcompute) is complete, the Marketing Server starts rcounter, the last snapshot generation internal process.

Rcounter evaluates all segments using the snapshot file, computes the gross and net counts, and writes these counts to the Marketing Server log file. In the Marketing Server log file, the information about this step is in the section following Application Name - Counter Allocate.

NOTE:  When you modify segment criteria, the Marketing Server runs rcounter again to recalculate gross and net counts based on the new version of the snapshot file.
