DESCRIPTION

       preludedb-admin  can  be  used  to  copy,  move, delete, save, update or restore a Prelude

       Mandatory arguments

       copy   Make a copy of a Prelude database to another database.

       count  Count the number of events in a Prelude database.

       delete Delete content of a Prelude database.

       load   Load a Prelude database from a file.

       move   Move content of a Prelude database to another database.

       optimize
              Optimize a Prelude database by deleting orphaned data.

       save   Save a Prelude database to a file.

       update Update data in a Prelude database.

       Running a command without providing arguments will display a detailed help.

EXAMPLES

       Obtaining help on a specific command:

              # preludedb-admin save
              Usage  : save <alert|heartbeat> <database> <filename> [options]
              Example: preludedb-admin save alert "type=mysql name=dbname user=prelude" outputfile

              Save messages from <database> into [filename].
              If no filename argument is provided, data will be written to standard output.

              Database arguments:
                type  : Type of database (mysql/pgsql).
                name  : Name of the database.
                user  : User to access the database.
                pass  : Password to access the database.

              Valid options:
                --offset <offset>               : Skip processing until 'offset' events.
                --count <count>                 : Process at most count events.
                --query-logging [filename]      : Log SQL query to the specified file.
                --criteria <criteria>           : Only process events matching criteria.
                --events-per-transaction        : Maximum number of event to process per transaction (default 1000).

       Preludedb-admin can be useful to delete events from a prelude database :

              preludedb-admin delete alert --criteria <criteria> "type=<mysql> name=<dbname> user=<prelude-user> pass=<pass>"

       where criteria is an IDMEF criteria :

              preludedb-admin delete alert --criteria "alert.classification.text == 'UDP packet dropped'" "type=mysql name=prelude user=prelude-user pass=prelude-pass"

       This will delete all event with the classification text  "UDP  packet  dropped"  from  the
       database.
