Summarizing Siebel Log Files Using the Logparse Utility

Environments: Development, Test and Production.

Platforms: Windows and UNIX only. Does not apply to IBM z/OS.

Use the Logparse utility to analyze and summarize the log files created when you run the Upgrade Wizard.

The Logparse utility writes its findings to a summary file:

  • Windows: SIEBEL_ROOT\log\process\summary.html

  • UNIX: $SIEBEL_ROOT/log/process/summary.html

In these paths, process is the upgrade process you want to review, for example, upgrep_dev_8x.

The Logparse utility also writes a summary.txt file that contains the same information as summary.html. Use the summary.txt file if you do not have a browser.

After writing the output files, the Logparse utility opens summary.html automatically.
