BCM Monitor information capture
Information capture an instantaneous snapshot of the information into a text file (“static
snapshot”). This is done by pre-selecting which of the BCM Monitor tabs the user wishes to
capture, and invoking a “save” function to capture the required information into a static snapshot
.txt file. The file name embeds time, date and Business Communications Manager name
information to make it easy to view using MS Word or other program at a later time.
Additionally, dynamic logging is also possible, in which the BCM Monitor application records
snapshots at a user specified frequency. This information is written into a file that is recognized by
spreadsheet applications such as MS Excel. The administrator can specify which information he
would like to have dynamically logged, and enable the automated dynamic snapshots to begin. The
interval of time between successive snapshots can be specified (in units of seconds). A maximum
number of snapshots can be specified, or infinite logging. Once enabled, BCM Monitor dynamic
logging writes the periodic snapshot information into a file on the administrator’s workstation
using the comma separated value (csv) file format.

You can also add additional information to the filename by selecting one or more of the
options on the drop down list beside the Output filename box. The additional information

Auto-increment Counter — This option adds a series number to the filename. This number
starts at 0000 and is incremented every time you take a static snapshot of this Business
Communications Manager system.
BCM name — This option adds the System Name of the Business Communications Manager
system to the filename.
Time — This options adds the time that the static snapshot was saved.
Date — This options adds the date that the static snapshot was saved.
When you select one of these options, a marker is added to the filename at the spot where the
cursor is located. The actual information is not generated until you save the static snapshot.

snapshots. To browse for the correct folder, click the button beside Output Folder box.
