Overview

This article describes how to resummarize data incrementally using the admincommand.exe tool.

Resolution

If you need to resummarize data outside of the already scheduled Surveyor tasks, you can do so using the AdminCommand.exe tool with the start_summarization command.

The syntax for AdminCommand.exe is:

start_summarization [<days into past>] force

This command starts, or restarts summarization. If summarization is already running and the force option is omitted, there is no effect (the previous summarization job continues). If summarization is already running and the force option is included, the existing summarization job is canceled. If the number of days to be summarized isn't specified, a full re-summarization is performed.

1. Launch the Windows command prompt as an administrator. exe from the command prompt as an administrator.
2. Run AdminCommand.exe start_summarization <days into past> from the C:\Program Files\Verdiem\Surveyor\Tools folder on the Surveyor server.

For example:

AdminCommand.exe start_summarization 30 force

To view the results of the summarization task:

• Open the summarization log file in C:\Program Files\Verdiem\Surveyor\Logs.
