Log files and Managing log rotation

Log Files Management page allows you to manage the log files: view, remove and save on a local machine. From that page you will access the log rotation preferences configuration.

  • The Log Files list can be sorted by name in ascending or descending order. To sort the list, click on the Modification date, Name, or Size header of the list. An arrow will show the order of sorting.

  • You can search through the list for a certain pattern. It may help you in case you have a great number of log files in the list and you need to work with a particular one. To search through the list, type the pattern string into the text input field and click SEARCH. If there were any items found matching the entered pattern string, they will all be displayed in the form of a reduced list. The button SHOW ALL will revert to displaying the whole list.

  • For your convenience, you may also type in the number of lines to be displayed per page in the lines of log file for viewing input field.

  • To view the log file, click on its name in the list. The log file content will be displayed in a separate Log Files Viewer window.

  • You may also wish to save a log file on your local machine. To do that, click the appropriate diskette icon in the Get column of the list. After that you will need to specify the location on your local machine and the file name for the downloaded log file to be saved, and then click Save.

  • To delete one or more log files from the list, check the corresponding checkboxes and click the REMOVE SELECTED button.

  • Click UP LEVEL to return to the Domain Administration page.

To configure Log Rotation preferences, follow these steps:

  1. Click the LOG ROTATION button, when on Log Files Management page. The Log Rotation Preferences configuration page will open.

  2. Click on the ON/OFF button to enable/disable log rotation. The log rotation status is indicated by an appropriate icon.

  3. Select the log rotation periodicity to be based on:

    • log file size - enter the size in kilobytes in the appropriate field
    • time - select from the drop-down list. It can be set to Daily, Weekly, and Monthly.

  4. Specify the maximum number of log files in the appropriate input field, if desired. The maximum number is the number of processed files to be kept for each log file.

  5. Check the Compress Log files checkbox to enable compression

  6. In the Send mail to input field, enter the e-mail address, for the log files to be sent to.

  7. Click the UPDATE button to submit changes. Clicking UP LEVEL will discard any unsubmitted changes and return you to the Log Files Management page.
