Event Generator (ELGEN)

This useful utility can be launched directly from the ELM Console and is designed to help test settings such as filters in Views and Notifications to make sure that you have configured them properly.

The Event Generator can generate test events from a variety of log types and sources. Series of events can be generated on different time intervals and multiple event generators can be run at the same time to create a more dynamic testing environment.

ELM Web Viewer

ELM Enterprise Manager includes an XML-based Web Viewer that enables you to view data stored in the ELM Server. The XML Web Viewer provides administrators with a variety of functions:

• View Events, Alerts, Notification Methods, Rules, Reports, etc.
• View item Properties
• Search Events
• Enable/Disable items
• Stop/Start Services
• Kill Processes

Sizing Tool

Given one or more Windows computer names, the ELM Sizing utility queries those machines and counts the number of events in each event log, looks at the oldest and newest date in each log, then uses a standard event size and days per month to estimate the events per day and bytes per day. The ELM Sizing utility is designed to help determine database/server sizing requirements.
