Batch Walk and System Info
A tool for getting information from Webinator or a Search Appliance that would normally require interactively logging into the the web admin interface using a web browser. This script will log into the web interface, visit information pages, and summarize what it finds. Customize it to grab and display information you need. It currently does the following:
  • Download the query log in XLS (tab separated) format.
  • Summarize the query log giving click-over ratio, bad search ratio, top 10 queries, top 10 query words, top 10 clients.
  • Walk status: indicate how many pages walked in the last hour and walk start time.
  • System (appliance only): Check for database errors, show load average and warn if high, show disk space and warn if low.
