Abstract

Method and system are provided for log file analysis to locate anomalies. The method includes comparing each line of a log file with other lines of the log file to determine duplicate and similar lines of the log file. The step of comparing includes: locating two or more duplicate lines of the log file; and locating two or more similar lines of the log file using pattern matching of a string of each of the lines of the log file. The method also includes outputting a line of the log file as a line that is a potential anomaly if it is rejected as a duplicate or a similar line.
