XpoLog help - Merge Logs
 
XpoLog gives you the ability to merge two or more log files from different time zones and view them in one combined log file setting to a time zone that you will decide. 
A combined use of Merge and Tail enables you to analyze and view logs in a very efficient way. 
Note that only logs with a 'Date' field can be merged.

Create a merged log
In order to create a merged log, follow these simple steps:
  1. First you have to define separately the logs that will be merged and check that you can view them properly.       
  2. In the 'add log' screen choose the 'Merge Logs' option.
  3. In the next step you will have to define parent folder, name and description of the merged log. In addition, you should choose the time zone in which you would like to view this merged log, and finally choose the logs to be merged.
  4. The next window is the main configuration window of the merged log. you will see in the upper part of the screen a number of column tables, each table for each of the selected logs. In the lower part of the screen, you will see a table that of all the columns in the merged log.
    Note that the only common column at this point is the 'Date' column.
    By marking the 'Date' column in the merged log columns table, you will see that the field 'Date' in all the upper tables will be marked as well, meaning that the column 'Date' is a united column for all the logs. At this stage you may use XpoLog configuration options in order to set the columns in the merged log in a way that will satisfy your needs. (you can add/remove a column, mark two columns by pressing the 'ctrl' button and then clicking on the mouse to unite them, or use XpoLog's auto detect function to unite all compatible columns).
    Note that when you will mark a single column in one table, you will see that this column is marked in the other tables that it belongs to. 
  5. In the next screen you can set a name to each (merged) column in the merged log.
  6. Click 'Next' to complete the definition of the merged log and save it.
  7. At this point you may view and analyze the merged log as if it was a regular log. The events of the logs comprising the merged log will appear interwoven, sorted by the events dates.
