EventCentral 4.6

Minor EventCentral update, to version 4.6, for a better handing of dump errors. An icon now shows up if an error was encountered during the dump. Clicking this icon displays dump log.

dumperror

Most of the time, dump will hang due to a badly formatted dump file that blocks database insertion. You just have to delete that file (or rename it with a different extension), and then run manually :

cd c:\program files\eventcentral
perl insertdb.pl

To upgrade EventCentral to this new version overwrite your EventCentral directory, except config.inc, with the content of the zip file (see "Download" section of this site).

Splunk vs EventCentral

I discovered Splunk in late  2007, and was convinced the concept was good. Splunk is a log collector, plus a powerful search engine, using its own language. GUI is quite pretty (written in Flash), and core code is written in Pyhton (odd idea).

A that time, Splunk was very Linux-oriented, thus not fitting my needs (Windows logs). Last version was more interesting : it runs on Windows (that doesn't really matters), and can collect Windows event logs natively (that's better).

EventCentral gathers each night event logs from Windows' network neighbourhood computers. These logs are then displayed in a web GUI.

Event logs are stored in a MySQL database.

Computers are automagically discovered, and can be filtered according to your needs.

EventCentral collecte nuitamment les journaux d'évènements des ordinateurs Windows du voisinage réseau. Ces journaux peuvent être lus via une interface web.

Les journaux sont conservés dans une base de données MySQL.

Les ordinateurs à collecter sont découverts automatiquement lors du processus de collecte, selon un filtre que tu peux définir.
