SUNScholar/Elastic Statistics/Import Logs

BACK TO ELASTIC STATISTICS

Introduction

To get a full statistical history after enabling Elastic Statistics, requires the import of old log data. Below are details to do just that.

Step 1 - Export old log data to suitable import format

I prepared the following bash script to do the conversion.

#!/bin/sh

cd /home/dspace/log
ITEM=`ls dspace.log.*`
#echo $ITEM

for i in $ITEM ; do
	/home/dspace/bin/dspace stats-log-converter -i $i -o $i.export
done

After running the script you will have a lot of log files with the .solr extension. This takes quite a while with a lot of log files. Be patient.

Step 2 - Import prepared log data to Elastic Statistics

I prepared the following bash script to do the import.

#!/bin/sh

cd /home/dspace/log
ITEM=`ls *.export`
#echo $ITEM

for i in $ITEM ; do
	echo "###################################"
	echo "Importing stats for log file:... $i"
	/home/dspace/bin/dspace stats-log-importer -i $i
done

This takes quite a while with a lot of log files. Be patient.
