BMC PATROL for Log Management 2.7 ... Documentation for older consoles Using in a BMC PATROL environment Working with PATROL for Log Management Monitoring log files

Monitoring XML files


Note

The XML Files monitor type is not supported any more.

PATROL for Log Management enables you to:

  • Monitor the valid XML files with the following encodings:
    • UTF-8 (This is the default encoding. If you do not specify the encoding for an XML file, it is assumed to be UTF-8).
    • LATIN1 (English)
  • Configure searching and monitoring of the element content from the XML file against the specified elements (also called as tags).

Note

  • Use of the XML file search feature assumes that you have a working knowledge of XML file constructs and terminology.
  • The KM only supports monitoring of the element content. It does not support monitoring of element attributes.
  • To configure the search and monitor functions, you must use a BMC PATROL Console for UNIX or Microsoft Windows in Developer mode, a BMC PATROL Central console, or the PATROL KM for Log Management PATROL Configuration Manager plug-in.
