Q

I have to find all agent errors on my IBM Domino servers, but I want to concentrate only on enabled agents. Can agentEZ help with this?

A

Yes it can. It's really a question of a couple simple steps to see detailed agent log information for all enabled agents, and then pare down the information to show errors. Here's how to do it.

Before you begin:


There are a few different ways that you can open agentEZ. In this example, we'll assume that you have already loaded the server/databases that you want to analyze. See this simple tutorial to learn how to open a server in agentEZ.

Show agent log information for selected agents

Image of agentEZ's main grid, data grouped by the column Enable and the category expanded.Step 1 Group your loaded grid data by the column header 'Enable'.
Step 2 Collapse all groups by selecting the corresponding toolbar button, or by using Shift + -
Step 3 Expand the category "Checked".
Image of agentEZ's main screen with Enabled agents selected, ready to access the agent log.Step 4 Select all agents in the "Checked" category as these agents are enabled, they will have information in the agent log.
Step 5 Then select 'Show Agent Log…' from the context menu.

Isolate agent errors

Step 7 Choose 'Text Filters'.
Step 8 In 'Log Entry contains:' enter "Error".

You may want to report these findings. If so, simply copy/paste the grid data into a file of your choice, or use one of the pre-formatted export types.
Step 10 To finish the process, click 'Done'.
