KMLM List

[Oliver Pesch <OPesch@xxxxxxxxx>]

I was reading the question to mean “what is the equivalent XML MetricType to use for the metric listed for a database in the Excel file?”.

 

Metric name appearing in Excel file	XML Metric Type to use
Total searches run	searches_reg
Searches-federated and automated	searches_fed
Total sessions	sessions_reg
Searches-federated and automated	sessions_fed

 

 

Note that "Total searches run" does NOT include searches federated and automated (contrary to how the name sounds) -- the following is from Note 2 or the Code of Practice (page 22)...

Any searches or sessions derived from any federated search engine or  automated search agent) should be included in separate “Searches_federated and automated” and “Sessions_federated and automated” counts as indicated in the above report and are not to be included in the “Searches run” and “Sessions”counts

 

And Bernd is right to remind us that “Total” notes for a database (total for all months) or report (totals for all databases) are not permitted in the XML.

 

Thanks

Hello Luiz,

> I don't know if here's the most appropriate place for asking this, but do you if metrics "total searches run" (coming in DB1 and DB3 reports in csv format) and "search_reg" in MetricType element of counterElements3_0 XML schema are the same thing?

 

if they were included, yes. But totals are not allowed in COUNTER XML.

 

Best regards,

Bernd
