The Generic Log Adaptor editor enables you to write rules for mapping your log file content to the common base event format.
The following figure shows an adaptor file viewed through the editor. The editor provides two panes:
- The Generic Adaptor Navigator pane, on the left, displays a tree viewer that maps to the adaptor file content. Use the pop-up actions on this pane to create and update the adaptor content. In this figure, the topmost node in the tree shows the adaptor root element, which contains contexts and configuration artifacts. Below the topmost node are the context instances.
- The right pane provides information on the elements that you have selected. In this figure, the CommonBaseEvent event is selected.
