( ¦Compaq Analyze provides background automatic analysis by monitoring the active binary error log and processing events as they occur. The events in the binary error log file are checked against the analysis rules. If one or more of the events in the binary error log file meets the conditions specified in the rules, the analysis engine collects the error data and creates a problem report containing a description of the problem and any corrective actions required. Once the problem report is created, it is distributed in accordance with the customer's notification preferences.
