Applications are logical units
that serve as containers for XpoLog components: logs, folders, monitors,
accounts, templates, wizards, tasks, schedulers, configuration
images and XpoLog enterprise nodes. You will often use applications to
define applications in XpoLog - by setting application's properties
that define an application (such as application name, application
type, version and so on) and by adding different XpoLog components
to it. Applications are then used to group together different XpoLog
components, such as in the case of viewing
reports or system health.
They can further be used to enter XpoLog in a certain context, so
that users will work in the context of applications - viewing and
editing only these components in XpoLog that belong to these meta
datas. |

- From the
'Data Support' menu select 'Applications' to enter the 'Applications
List' page.
- Click 'add new' to create a new application or 'edit' of an
existing one to edit it.
- In the 'General settings' section, enter the Id of the meta
data. It is not possible to change the Id of an existing meta
data.
- Enter the application's name. You can further enter a
description for the application.
-
In the 'Properties' section, enter the properties
that best define your application. XpoLog comes with a
set of predefined properties: Applications, Version, Build,
Platform, Operating System and Vendor. In places where a
property can be selected from a combo box, you can select
'other' and enter a new value. This value will then be added to
the list of available values of that property. Since the 'Application' property has a tree
structure, if you select the 'other' entry you will be prompted
to enter the name of the already existing application under
which the new entry should be placed. To add a new property that
is not already included in the set of displayed properties,
click the 'add new property' link and enter the property's type
and value. Click the 'remove' link to remove and existing
property.
-
In the 'Search Context Menu' section, you can
define search context menus to enable search of logged data in
data repositories, such as search engines and wikis. The context
menus entered here apply to all logs that will later be
associated with this application. To add a new search context
menu, click the 'Add Menu' link and enter
the name of the data repository (i.e. Google) and the URL to be
used for the search.

As described above, applications are containers
of XpoLog components. To associate XpoLog components to an existing
application, follow these steps:
- From the
'Data Support' menu select 'Applications' to enter the 'Applications
List' page.
-
>Click the 'members' link of an existing application
to enter the 'System members of application ...' page.
-
Select the component type by clicking on the
appropriate tab and select the members you want to associate
with the application.
-
Click 'save' to complete the application members
definition.
