Part II Administer Oracle Log Analytics
Get started by reviewing the workflow for administering Oracle Log Analytics.
To monitor a custom log file, you, as the Oracle Log Analytics administrator must create a new log source and a parser.
You can create a log source or a parser in multiple ways:
-
From the Oracle Log Analytics Configuration page
-
From the OMC Navigation
icon on the top left corner of the Oracle Log Analytics interface
You can also import source and parser definitions from an XML file. Importing source definitions imports all source-related content such as Extended Fields, Tags, Lookups, and Labels.
To import source or parser definitions, click the gear 
icon on the top right corner of the Configuration page and select the XML
definition file.
