Hi all, I have a requirement where i need to handle various types of logs. One option is to use filter for each kind pof logs and process them. Is there any other better options as APACHECOMMONLOGS and APACHECOMBINEDLOGS are not able to process these logs.The logs are basically log4j releated logs. ---
