Universal Logging System

Compressions and aggregations and are defined on continuously generated values.

(Setting daily aggregations for domain “Woodlark”).

Connect as “SystematicGuy” to ULS and go to

• administration → compression → set compression → Woodlark → testsrv21 → 200 Continuous Hourly Values → 220 Float Values

“SystematicGuy” has sufficient rights only for domain “Woodlark”, although he may drill down also in domain “ULS”, but cannot define any compressions.

• activate some checkboxes of the daily block and click

It should look like:

Click on changes of the compression setting to verify that the initial change has been logged.

Click on of the compression setting to view the same result.

As user “SystematicGuy”

• go to main menu → aggregated values → since last week → Woodlark → testsrv21 → 200 Continuous Hourly Values → 220 Float Values
• verify a list of aggregated values, one row for each day

It should look like:

Verify the same results.

(Setting hourly and daily aggregations for domain “ULS”).

Connect as “AmieAction” to ULS and

• go to administration → aggregation → set auto aggregation
• domain “ULS” is automatically chosen

(AmieAction has sufficient rights only for domain “ULS”).

• set section to “200 Continuous Hourly Values”
• activate all checkboxes of “hourly” and “special” (lowest line) and click
• continue with
• to export the definitions to a new browser tab
• copy the definition and paste it into the import textbox of previous browser tab
• copy the “hourly” entry to the “daily” entry

It should look like:

create auto-aggregation for ULS

server=
section=200 Continuous Hourly Values
teststep=
detail=
unit=
hourly=last,avg,sum,dev,min,max,max-min,last-first,count,grad,first,accel,differ,firstsize,last/avg,lastsize

Click to save that. The new entry is added, delete the entry created manually in the first step.

Click on changes of the auto-aggregation setting to verify that the initial change has been logged.

Click on of the auto-aggregation setting to verify that all changes have been logged, especially the deleted one.

Verify, that the above rules are propagated correctly. Check:

• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → ULS → testsrv11 → 200 Continuous Hourly Values → 210 Integer Values

It should look like

Check as user “TheSpyder” that the hourly and daily aggregations are propagated only to details in domain “ULS”.

• Go to administration → aggregation → set aggregation → Woodlark
• drill down to all details of all sources (servers)
• verify that no aggregation definitions are applied, except those above Manually Defined Aggregations for Woodlark → testsrv21 → 200 Continuous Hourly Values → 220 Float Values

Make a report of all effective aggregations:

• go to main menu → today → auto details selection
• define a report to show all effective aggregations

the “compression” (as display in report details) does currently not work.

Verify as user “AmieAction” that the aggregation works:

• go to main menu → aggregated values → since last week → ULS → testsrv21 → 200 Continuous Hourly Values → 210 Integer Values
• verify a list of aggregated values, one row for each hour
• click on
• chose
• display: last values
• and click

It should look like:

Verify the same results.

(Setting weekly and monthly aggregations for all domains (“ULS”, “Woodlark”)).

Connect as “TheSpyder” to ULS and

• go to administration → aggregation → group auto aggregation → AllRounder (that group has full rights for domain “ULS” and “Woodlark”).
• set section to “*Weekly*”
• activate all checkboxes of “weekly” (the third block) and click
• activate checkbox “active [x]” and click

Verify, that the above rules are propagated correctly to all details in all teststeps in both domains:

• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → ULS → testsrv11 → 400 Continuous Weekly Values
• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → ULS → testsrv12 → 400 Continuous Weekly Values
• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → Woodlark → testsrv21 → 400 Continuous Weekly Values
• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → Woodlark → testsrv22 → 400 Continuous Weekly Values

• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → ULS → testsrv11 → 500 Continuous Monthly Values
• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → ULS → testsrv12 → 300 Continuous Daily Values
• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → Woodlark → testsrv21 → 500 Continuous Monthly Values
• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → Woodlark → testsrv22 → 300 Continuous Daily Values

Verify that the checkboxes for the monthly and special blocks are activated.

• administration → aggregation → set aggregation → ULS → testsrv11 → 500 Continuous Monthly Values

Check a subset of all compressed values. The “continuous_values” script must have at least run for more than one day.

Login as “SystematicGuy” and go to main menu → compressed values → yesterday.

Go to main menu → compressed values → yesterday.

Go to ULS → testsrv12 → 200 Continuous Hourly Values → 210 Integer Values, click on and chose
