evmget(1) evmget(1)

evmget -A -t "@timestamp @@"

• In this example, only events from the

my_log channel are retrieved. The events are further ﬁltered

to display only messages from the EVM daemon’s logﬁle.

evmget -A -C my_log -f "[name *.evmdaemon]" -t "@timestamp @@"

• This example retrieves only events that have a priority value of at least 500. The raw events are

sorted into descending timestamp order and stored in a ﬁle.

evmget -f "[priority >= 500]" \

| evmsort -s @timestamp- > my_eventfile

• This example uses a stored ﬁlter to retrieve all EVM events, sorts them into ascending timestamp

order (the default order), and displays them.

evmget -f "@sys:evm" | evmsort | evmshow -t "@timestamp @@"

• This ksh example uses the environment variables

EVM_SORT_SPEC to set the sort preference and

EVM_SHOW_TEMPLATE

to set the preferred display style and format for the

evmget output.

export EVM_SORT_SPEC="@priority"

export EVM_SHOW_TEMPLATE="@timestamp @@"

evmget | evmsort -A

WARNINGS

The evmget command retrieves only events for which the user has access authorization. See

evm.auth (4) for details of access authorization.

The

evmget command rejects attempts to output raw events to a terminal device.
