Hi,

I have a few questions regarding BES log files. I have BES R4.0 with MS Exchange server.

I need to write a script to generate a few statistics from BES log files. The stats I want are

Number of attempts in sending messages to handhelds
Number of successes in sending messages to handhelds
Number of attempts in receiving messages from handhelds
Number of successes in receiving messages from handhelds

Do anyone know how can I compute them from log file?

Thank you for help in advance.

The best thing you can do is download the resource kit and you can obtain this and a lot more statistics.

Thank you for the answer Bob.

I checked out the resource kit. I found out how to count number of emails sent TO handheld, but I couldnxxx8217;t figure out how to count number of emails sent FROM handheld. Any insights?

Thanks again

Look for the HistoricalStats:

Interpreting the results of the HistoricalStats query
Results are in a .csv file HistoricalStats_<MMDD>.<#>.csv, where MMDD is the month and day, and <#> is the number of agent restarts that the tool finds in the logs that it processes. If you specified all, the file name is HistoricalStats_<MMDD>.<#>.csv.
-u all/<username>
