Is there a tool for working with logs?

Hi, 

Is there a tool for working with log files?
Log files are quite large and complex, so maybe there is a tool for working with them where I could use filters.

Depends on the log files.

For DB logs and some driver logs, https://community.se.com/t5/Geo-SCADA-Knowledge-Base/CS-File-Analyser/ba-p/278766 however it hasn't been updated in a very long time which is a major shame as the tool was very powerful once you got used to the features (the person who originally wrote it left Schneider about 8 years ago and various people have tried to pick it up since)

For comms/IO logs you have https://community.se.com/t5/Geo-SCADA-Knowledge-Base/Driver-Log-Translator-Picker-Utility/ba-p/27897... which is really a wrapper to running driverwhatever.exe /translate from the command line (if the tool doesn't work properly can just do the translate manually)

For ViewX logs, not aware of any tool.

File analyser still works, you just have to remove lines that it can't parse because they've changed since it was published; from memory ICMP.

If you're using the latest SCADA version, you don't need the picker any more, you can translate directly from server status/modules.
