1852.0. "PROBEwatch for Windows reporting?" by UTRTSC::GROOT_R (Ronald de Groot) Fri Jan 06 1995 08:59

Hi, (Jack)

I have a few quistions about PROBEwatch for Windows reporting.

1. Is it possible to make reports with PROBEwatch for Windows on the
   same way as Ultrix (OSF/1 ??) does? I read note 1826,1142 and the
   files logreprt.txt,crontab.txt and dvadmin.txt.  

2. If this works like the unix versions will there be any documentation
   about this?

3. When it works is it possible to use the data from the .log files to
   put in e.g. Excel. (.log is ascii data?) or is it only possible
   to use PROBEwatch to make and print graphics en text reports?

When it is possible I will set this up with the customer.
The customer has already a PacketProbe90 and a seed version of PROBEwatch 
for Windows.

    yes in V3.1 on Probewatch you can store all informations in files

    i think the documentation aren't availabel yet, but like other windows
    products it's a plug and play very easy application

1852.2Probewatch reportingUTRTSC::GROOT_RRonald de GrootThu Jan 12 1995 10:2711
    Jean-Yves,
    
    Thanks for the reply, I have it working but had the same problem
    as note 1826. The solution was note 1826.3 and .4 again thanks.
    I have make the DVLOG.CFG file on a VAX fileservice and copied
    him after editing to the PROBEW/USR dir. After that it works. I
    have also used MSDOS (6.0) edit with the same result as note 1826!
    I have now more quistion's as when I started with probewatch
    reporting but for the moment I am happy.

1852.3It will get easier in the futureNAC::FORRESTFri Jan 13 1995 18:013
    We may have to wait for the next version to get Comma Separated
    Variable (CSV) support. This would make it easier to import into
    spreadsheets and databases.
