Migrating data from the PATROL KM for Log Management version 1.

The PATROL KM for Log Management version 2.x no longer supports search string templates. If you created search string template in the PATROL KM for Log Management version 1.x, you need to update them into PATROL KM for Log Management version 2.x format using the menu command for the PMGCONVERT.km application class.

Warning

Note

PMGCONVERT.km does not migrate custom event messages.

Before you begin

The PMGCONVERT.km application class is not loaded when you load the LOG.kml file, so you must load PMGCONVERT.km separately.

Warning

Note

In the Load KMs dialog box, be sure to select All Files in the File Type filter so that you will be able to see the PMGCONVERT.km file.

When PMGCONVERT.km is loaded, a LOG_Convert instance is created under the managed system icon, not under the LOG application class.

To convert search string templates to 2. x format:

  1. Access the LOG_Convert application menu as described in Accessing Menu Commands, InfoBoxes, and Online Help.
  2. Choose Convert 1.0 to 2.0 definition.

Search strings defined in version 1.x of the KM are updated to 2.x format.

 

Tip: For faster searching, add an asterisk to the end of your partial query. Example: cert*
