A method for automatically processing log files of different types of an automation system, said method determining a message part of a data set of the log file. All contents of the respective data sets of the log files are concatenated. The data sets of all the log files are summarized in a summary file. The data sets of all the log files are chronologically sorted in the summary file. The data sets are compressed in the summary file. The compressed data sets in the summary file are coded. The compressed data sets are assigned to groups with associated group codes. The group code of the assigned group is decoded. The decoded group code is output as the alphanumeric message part of the log file. The alphanumeric message part of the log file is stored in a memory.

Method for automatically processing a number of log files of an automation system

A method is disclosed for analyzing and/or evaluating at least one event of a technical installation from a plurality of generated log files of an automation system of the technical installation. In at least one embodiment, the method includes determining a number of relevant log files based on at least one log parameter; encoding the relevant log files via at least one associated log code; determining at least one key parameter for the analysis and/or evaluation; identifying multiple relevant log files based on the at least one key parameter from the relevant log files; and grouping the relevant log files into a number of sequences of relevant log files based on the repetition rate of the key parameter in a time window to be analyzed.
