PERL ParseLog Script Sample

This Practical Extraction and Report Language (PERL) ParseLog Script Sample demonstrates one method of extracting information from Windows Media Services version 4.0 log files to build clear, useful reports. If created weekly, a Windows Media Services log can contain thousands of client events, each with more than 40 fields of data. By running a log file through this ParseLog or a similar script, data is analyzed and combined to create summaries. The summaries can be very useful in assessing server load or managing aspects of your streaming media business. The Log Analysis Script Sample, also included in this SDK, is another example of a log analysis tool.

For more information about log files, see Windows Media Services Help.
