Use eels_log_import(1Meels) to import a pre-formatted row of data into a specified EELS database. This command is usually used in conjunction with a conversion script that first converts an external log file into a format that eels_log_import can use.
Before you can use this command, you must first determine the order of the fields as they will be passed to the command, and the delimiter characters that are to be used. All this information has to be specified on the command line, so the usual practice is to insert the entire command into a shell script. A full example is shown in ``A simple example using Perl''.
For example, two fields ``ProcessID'' and
``EventNumber'' are passed to
eels_log_import(1Meels)
separated by ``#'' (field delimiter) and ``^''
(record delimiter). This can be done using the following
command:
eels_log_import -o "ProcessID EventNumber" -r "^" -f "#"
