Scheduling log collection

Last Updated : Jun 10, 2026 |

About this task

Certain log levels, such as FINEST, provide very detailed information about events on Avaya Aura® Device Services. However, enabling these log levels on a constant basis might negatively impact the Avaya Aura® Device Services performance. You can enable detailed logging temporarily for a specified time period. After the specified period expires, Avaya Aura® Device Services switches back to the original log level, which you configure in the Adjust Service Logging Level area.

Scheduled log collection cancels automatically if you change the original log level for any log category.

After enabling scheduled log collection for a log category, you cannot set up scheduled log collections for other log categories until the specified time period expires or you cancel scheduled log collection.

Procedure

  1. On the Avaya Aura® Device Services web administration portal, go to Log Management > Log Level.
  2. In the Log capture scheduling area, select a log category for which you want to enable scheduled log collection.
  3. In the Planned log level field, select a log level that you want to enable on a temporary basis for the log category.
  4. Optional If required, repeat steps 2 and 3 for other log categories.
  5. In the Schedule Start Time field, select one of the following:

    • Immediate: To start collecting logs at the planned log level immediately.

    • Specify Time: To specify the date and time when you want to start collecting logs at the planned log level.

  6. In the Duration field, select one of the following:

    • Select Duration: To specify the period during which Avaya Aura® Device Services collects logs at the planned log level.

    • No Duration (Indefinite): To set the log level specified in the Planned log level field as the new default log level for the log category.

      Note:

      When you select No Duration (Indefinite), Avaya Aura® Device Services does not schedule log collection at the specified log level. Instead, Avaya Aura® Device Services sets up the new default log level for the log category starting from the time specified in the Schedule Start Time field.

  7. Click Schedule.
  8. In the confirmation window, click Save.

Result

Avaya Aura® Device Services saves the configuration and displays the schedule status on the page.
