Customizing the rules file

When migrating from the legacy probe to the Generic Log File Java Probe, there are some important points to note about the rules file:

  • The rules file supplied with the Generic Log File Java Probe no longer generates tokens with the name: FieldVal. It uses instead: Token.
  • The Generic Log File Java Probe no longer generates the token named Overflow. There is no replacement for this token.
  • The ProbeWatch messages have been modified. Refer to the rules file supplied with the Generic Log File Java Probe for details of the new statements that deal with the updated ProbeWatch messages.

If you want to migrate custom rules from the legacy probe, you must update the rules accordingly.
