What version are you on? I just tried doing a grep -i "late at" aresc.log and it did not pull up anything even though I know I have escalation delays. I am on ARS 6.3 patch 20 on Solaris 9 (w/ Oracle 10g) Fred

The escalation log actually shows you if you are running late, for example if some escalation is taking so long that it delays others. If you never have had this problem they you probably have not tried hard enough. Whe the escalations are running late they create a log entry that has the currentime and the firetime I let the esclation log run overnight and I wanted to see how late (in seconds) the escalations were delayed. This works on our linux. I'm sure there are smart people that have solved this before, but I thought it was cool enough to share. % grep "set firetime of 1 second, firetime" arescl.log | awk '{print $23-$21, "late at", $20, $21, $22, $23, $24}' | grep -v "^0" | sort -nr | mail -s "late escalations report" [EMAIL PROTECTED] The output looks something like this: 1495 late at firetime 1188930731, currenttime 1188932226 1097 late at firetime 1188973269, currenttime 1188974366 1093 late at firetime 1188961114, currenttime 1188962207 1090 late at firetime 1188934027, currenttime 1188935117 1023 late at firetime 1188942394, currenttime 1188943417 -- -Geoff Endresen Amazon.com _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
