Mockup of new report page for Directory Server Log Analyzer 0.0.3.1
The report page had become very spaced-out and hard to read: too much white space, not enough data. Here is a mockup of my proposed changes:

Directory Server Log Analyzer 0.0.2.6 released
Directory Server Log Analyzer 0.0.2.6 has been released. Download the WAR file and deploy it under ContextRoot "dsla" into Glassfish or Tomcat 5/6. This version corrects an oversight in building the software, and the code is now supported by Java 1.5 and Java 1.6.

Directory Server Log Analyzer 0.0.1.7 build 307 released
The 0.0.1.7 release of the OpenDS Directory Server Access Log Analyzer has been released at http://kenai.com/projects/dsla. This version is very minimalist, and only supports OpenDS access logs, has no persistent storage, and is probably as buggy as my back deck in summertime. It has been more or less tested with access logs from OpenDS 1.0 and 1.3 collected from some performance testing that was conducted in August 2008 and from interested users. This version reports:
- count of LDAP operations
- maximum etime
- minimum etime
- average etime
- number of occurrences of etimes
- added 'Entire File' section to view file detail
- added max etime 'Entire File'
- added min etime 'Entire File'
- added arithmetic mean of etimes 'Entire File'
- added geometric mean of etimes 'Entire File'
- added variance of etimes 'Entire File'
- added standard deviation of etimes 'Entire File'
- added code to choose the field width and precision of real numbers on the configuration screen.
If anyone has some access log files from any version of OpenDS, please send me some snippets so that my testing can continue.
Interested parties should join the mailing lists at http://kenai.com/projects/dsla/lists, report defects at https://kenai.com/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?product=dsla, and contribute code.

Directory Server Log Analyzer 0.0.1.1 released
The first release of the OpenDS Directory Server Access Log Analyzer has been released at http://kenai.com/projects/dsla. This first working version is named 0.0.1.1, is very minimalist, and only supports OpenDS access logs, has no persistent storage, and is probably as buggy as the US Embassy in Moscow. It has been more or less tested with access logs from OpenDS 1.0 collected from some performance testing that was conducted in August 2008. This version reports the number, maximum, minimum and average etimes for most LDAP operations. All are welcome to use it and test it.
If anyone has some access log files from any version of OpenDS, please send me some snippets so that my testing can continue.\
Future releases will contain support for various databases (LDAP, BDB, and MySQL), a directory scanner to pick up new access logs generated by OpenDS, and a way to send files to the software without using the administrative interface, and whatever other features that are deemed useful. Also, support for other directory server software such as Sun's DIrectory Server Enterprise Edition and OpenLDAP will be added.
Interested parties should join the mailing lists at http://kenai.com/projects/dsla/lists, report defects at https://kenai.com/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?product=dsla, and contribute code.
