MAS - OHV - Export Operation History Events Dialog Box

This topic describes how to use the Export Operation History Events dialog box to export the events in the current session of the Operation History Viewer window. See MAS - Operation History Viewer Window.

You can export operation history events to view, query and search the data using alternate tools, for example, text editors and database querying tools.


Notes: You cannot export events which have been opened from a *Snapshot File (.SNP). When a snapshot file is loaded, the system disables the Export command. You must click File > Pause** to pause the feed, before you can export events in a live session. Once the export is complete, the system resumes the event feed automatically without any loss of events generated during the export.

Launching the Screen

File > Export Launches the Export Operation History Events dialog box. This has some standard Windows features, plus two Avaya-specific buttons: Options and Help.

Configuring the Screen Controls

File Name Enter a file name, or, if you want to overwrite an existing file, click that file.

List Files of Type Select either Text File (*.TXT) or Database File (*.MDB) format.

Text File (*.TXT) Records in a text file, with field separators and text envelope characters. The text file contains event information for the currently selected columns only.

Database File (*.MDB) Open Database Connectivity (ODBC)-compliant database with the same columns as the operation history database.

Drives Select the drive where you wish to save the file.

Directories Select the directory where you wish to save the file.
