The Logging service provides configuration capabilities and overall management of logs. It receives and stores log events and harvests file-based logs or local database logs. You can view and monitor logs and their details through the log viewer using the System Manager Web Console. The log viewer is integrated with the common console to provide a consistent presentation of log messages for System Manager and the adopters.
The log viewer displays a list of logs where you can view each log details, perform a search for logs, and filter specific logs. The log details include event information that generates the log, the severity level of the log, and other relevant information. You can search logs based on search conditions and set filters to view logs that match the filter criteria.
The following are some of the log types:
Security: Security loggers gather security logs.
Audit: Audit loggers gather audit logs.
Operation: Operational loggers gather operational logs.
Debug: Debug loggers collect debug information to troubleshoot issues at the customer site.
The Logs menu in System Manager comprises:
Log Harvester: Through the Log Harvester menu, you can harvest log files for one or more products of the same or different types, running on the same or different computers.
Log Settings: This menu displays the loggers and appenders for the selected log configuration file. You can modify the logger and appender settings through this menu.
Log Viewer: The log viewer allows you to view the logs generated by System Manager and other components and their details. You can view details of each log, perform a search for logs, and filter specific logs.
