sed cmd and indexing volume count

cafissimo
Communicator

Hello, I would like to know something about SEDCMD command. If I eliminate a portion of my record, what does it count for license? The original event or only the portion of the event that I am keeping?

Here is an example of my sedcmd command

[source::.../accounts.log]
SEDCMD-foobar = s/foobar//g

Thanks in advance and kind regards.

Only the indexed portion will count for license, i.e., any content that you delete using SEDCMD will not be counted.
