About the Log Analysis Utility
The Log Analysis Utility is a command-line utility that helps you quickly identify the cause of issues reported by Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System components by analyzing the applicable log files. Because this utility automates log file analysis, you do not need to manually locate and scan EPM System log files to identify issues. Information required to troubleshoot the issue or to escalate it to Oracle Support is quickly available by running this utility. Run on the server where Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services is installed, this utility accesses and analyzes log files on all the servers identified in the Oracle Hyperion Shared Services Registry of an EPM System instance.
Using the Log Analysis Utility, you can:
List EPM System errors that occurred within a time period. System issues are related to services, intercomponent communication errors, and user directory communication errors.
List functional issues that occurred within a time period. Functional issues are related to EPM System component functionalities; for example, failure during an Oracle Essbase calculation run or the forms load process in Oracle Hyperion Planning or Oracle Hyperion Financial Management.
Trace an Execution Context ID (ECID) through log files to trace user sessions across EPM System components. ECID is a unique identifier that is used to correlate events that are part of the same request execution flow. ECID is an Oracle standard unique ID.
