/ : 3.10.1.2 Filters n

"> Filtering is used when you perform translation or create a new log file in order to reduce the number of events processed. With large log files, using only a subset of the events can improve processing time and only display the pertinent output.

With the web interface, filtering is performed by using templates. Templates are pre-defined filtering functions that can be applied to Compaq Analyze functions in order to obtain the desired results.

ID You can use the Filtering Preferences screen to create new filter templates, modify existing filter templates or select default filtering options. To access the Filtering Preferences screen, click the Filters button in the User Settings navigation bar.
