Accumulating Statistics

Control-O accumulates statistics about rule processing, through the Message Statistics facility. The Message Statistics facility records all messages and commands detected by Control-O, and allows them to be sorted and selected based on various criteria.

By studying information provided by the Message Statistics facility, you can evaluate console automation at your site and what can be done to improve it. For example, if you determine that certain messages are issued frequently but are not responded to by Control-O, you may want to define Control-O rules that will handle, or suppress, those messages automatically and in this way, save the operator valuable time.
