QMC log file format !!!

[eromiyasimon]

Hi All, Generally my logs are used to be logged in below format

Performance_ServerName_YYYY-MM-DD

Events_ServerName_YYYY-MM-DD

Sessions_ServerName_YYYY-MM-DD

But now it used to create in this format

Performance_ServerName_YYYYDD

Events_ServerName_YYYYDD S

essions_ServerName_YYYYDD

Could you please help and advice to bring back the old format in QMC?

May be, there was a change in Timestampformat of the app.

Hi Bala,

Thanks for the reply these are not app generated logs,

QMC auto generated logs

Hello,

In QV 12, the time stamps in logs were changed to use UTC format. This was a design change in the product and cannot be reverted back to the local time format of previous versions.

Hope this helps

Refer this:

QV12 Timestamp Parsing

This parsing functionality is particularly useful now that the QlikView Server logfiles use the UTC format for times.

I’m not sure yet if I like the automatic conversion to UTC time.  For example, apps like the QlikView Governance Dashboard now report Session Start or Event times in UTC time, not local time.

It’s nice that the “T” character is understood. If you want local time, it’s easy enough to drop the offset (“-0500”) as

=Timestamp(left('20160504T142523.487-0500', 19))

which returns

5/4/2016 2:25:23 PM.

Hi Bala,

If you copy/paste from my blog please indicate clearly that it is an excerpt from the blog post. Something like:

It looks like your QMC Logging "split files" setting has changed from "Daily" to "Weekly".  You can set it back on the QMC in Setup, System, QlikView Servers, Logging.

Sure Rob, I'll do.

I agree, it looks like the splitting of the log files was changed.
