The Clipboard Tab

The Index Search Clipboard is an important tool for investigating and troubleshooting log events.

For example, during your analysis of a certain event, you might find an item of interest in one or more log messages. Once identified, you can create a Clipboard and copy and paste the affected log message(s) onto the Clipboard.

You can create several clipboards until you have found everything you need to help you with your analysis as you drill down on the details. After saving clipped messages to the clipboard, you can view them on Clipboard tab and on the Search Results tab.

The Clipboard tab provides a toolbar with several options for using clipped messages. These options include:

Adds a new clipboard
Deletes one or more clipped messages
Allows you view or edit the clipped message
