GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE SYSTEM FOR A LOG ANALYZER
A graphical user interface system for a log analyzer having an input module, an output module, a merge module, and an export module. The input module selects one or more log files, and the output module displays the selected log files for analysis. The merging module performs time normalization for two or more log files from the selected log files, and merges the normalized log files. The export module can then export the merged log files.
1 . A graphical user interface system for a log analyzer, the system comprising:
an input module configured to select one or more log files;
an output module configured to display the selected log files for analysis; and
a merge module configured to:
perform time normalization for two or more log files from the selected log files; and
merge the normalized log files; and
an export module configured to export the merged log files.
2 . The graphical user interface system of claim 1 , wherein the input module is further configured to perform at least one of:
selecting time-zone for the selected log files,
adjusting time for the selected log files,
filtering the selected log files, or
clearing the selected log files.
3 . The graphical user interface system of claim 1 , wherein the output module is further configured to display detailed view for the selected log files.
4 . The graphical user interface system of claim 1 further comprises a tile-view module configured to display the selected log files in a tile-view format.
5 . The graphical user interface system of claim 1 , wherein each of the input module, the output module, the merge module, and the export module comprises an interactive event-driven icon.
6 . The graphical user interface system of claim 5 , wherein the interactive event-driven icon comprises at least one of a pop-up menu, or a scroll-menu.
7 . The graphical user interface system of claim 1 , wherein the selected log files comprise at least one of an application log file, a system log file, a cluster server log file, a disaster management log file, and a resource allocation log file.
8 . The graphical user interface system of claim 1 , wherein the input module is further configured to filter the selected log files based on a set of filtering events.
9 . The graphical user interface system of claim 8 , wherein the set of filtering events comprises at least one of an error event, an information event, a warning event, or an unknown event.
10 . The graphical user interface system of claim 1 , wherein the log files are selected across one or more systems.
11 . A computer-implemented method for operating a graphical user interface system for a log analysis tool, the method comprising:
activating an input module for selecting one or more log files;
displaying the selected log files for analysis in an output module; and
activating a merge module for:
performing time normalization on two or more log files from the selected log files; and
merging the normalized log files; and
activating an export module for exporting the merged log files.
12 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising step of displaying the selected log files in a tile-view format.
13 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising step of selecting time-zone of the selected log files.
14 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising step of adjusting the time zone of the selected log files.
15 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising step of clearing the selected log files.
16 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising step of filtering the selected log files based on a set of filtering events, wherein the set of filtering events comprises at least one of an error event, an information event, a warning event, or an unknown event.
17 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising step of displaying detailed view for the selected log files.
18 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the step of selecting the log files comprises selecting at least one of an application log file, a system log file, a cluster server log file, a disaster management log file, and a resource allocation log file.
19 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the step of activating the input module for selecting log files for analysis comprises activating at least one of an interactive event-driven icon.
20 . The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the step of activating the input module for selecting the log files comprises selecting the log files from across one or more systems.
21 . A graphical user interface system for a log analyzer, the system comprising:
a set of input modules configured to:
select one or more log files;
select time zone for the selected log files;
execute time-adjustment for the selected log files;
filter the selected log files; or
clear the selected log files;
a set of output modules configured to:
display the selected log files for analysis; or
display detailed view for the selected log files; and
a merge module configured to:
perform time normalization for two or more log files from the selected log files; and
merge the normalized log files; and
an export module configured to export the merged log files.
