So you can use it<br>for load balanced log files or to group several old log files.<br><br>Don't forget that the main goal of logresolvemerge is to send log records to<br>a log analyzer in a sorted order without merging files on disk (NO NEED<br>OF DISK SPACE AT ALL) and without loading files into memory (NO NEED<br>OF MORE MEMORY). Choose of output records is done on the fly.<br><br>So logresolvemerge is particularly usefull when you want to output several<br>and/or large log files in a fast process, with no use of disk or<br>more memory, and in a chronological order through a pipe (to be used by a log<br>analyzer).<br><br>Note: If input records are not 'exactly' sorted but 'nearly' sorted (this<br>occurs with heavy servers), this is not a problem, the output will also<br>be 'nearly' sorted but a few log analyzers (like AWStats) knowns how to deal<br>with such logs.<br><br>WARNING: If log files are old MAC text files (lines ended with CR char), you<br>can't run this tool on Win or Unix platforms.<br><br>WARNING: Because of memory holes in ActiveState Perl version, use another<br>Perl interpreter if you need to process large log files.<br><br>Now supports/detects:<br> Automatic detection of log format<br> Files can be .gz/.bz2 files if zcat/bzcat tools are available in PATH.<br> Multithreaded reverse DNS lookup (several parallel requests) with Perl 5.8+.<br>New versions and FAQ at http://www.awstats.org<br> <br> <br> <br><a name="maillogconvert"><h2 style=""><u>maillogconvert.pl</u></h2></a> <br>maillogconvert is mail log preprocessor that convert a mail log file (from <br>postfix, sendmail or qmail servers) into a human readable format. <br>The output format is also ready to be used by a log analyzer, like AWStats. <br> <br>Usage: <br> perl maillogconvert.pl [standard|vadmin] [year] < logfile > output <br> <br>The first parameter specifies what format the mail logfile is : <br> standard - logfile is standard postfix,sendmail,qmail or mdaemon log format <br> vadmin - logfile is qmail log format with vadmin multi-host support <br> <br>The second parameter specifies what year to timestamp logfile with, if current <br>year is not the correct one (ie. 2002).
