Log-Usage rule execution entries only showing stream rules
I'm trying to extract rule execution statistics from Log-RuleUsage and Log-RuleUsage-Details snapshot instances. This is documented at https://docs-previous.pega.com/system-administration/86/rule-usage-snapshots but results I'm seeing only seem to include stream related rules such as Flow Actions or HTML rules and not the advertised "any rule that is converted to Java at assembly time". Actually the exact opposite seems to be true in reality.
The documentation examples seem to suggest that all Java generated rules should captured:
DECISIONTREE.RA_DECLARE_DECISIONTREE_RULE_PARSE_DELIMITED_GETPROMPTKEY_362AD3D39240B644A4CFBE58EA5DA52E RA_ACTIVITY_DATA_ADMIN_OPERATOR_ID_SAVEDEVELOPERPREFERENCESXML_0C4D9291362765E0470388C76C1FD527
RA_HTML_FRAGMENT_SMARTPROMPT_NOINPUT_1EF7F65A6B1B426D7A6E5A270B8DF4DD!
I would be interested to learn whether anyone else experienced a similar result?

@Markus Marbach I have checked with SME's internally .
The initial analysis based on your description is that the underlying reason for this inconsistency may be that the VTable assembly cache was never enhanced to emit RuleUsage data. So any rules executed via VTable (basically anything not a stream rule, among a few other exceptions) do not get recorded, just as you have observed.
In order that we can align the documentation we are checking if there are any plans in the pipeline to address the gap in VTable.
To help us find ways to solve your problem, would you be able to give us more insight into your use case and what you are trying to do with the usage info?
