Logging

The logs are stored in a circular buffer on each Screen. You can download them to the Administration Station for analysis, archival, etc. Although no central logging mechanism exists for a global view of the logs on the individual Screens in a centralized management group, the secondary Screens make some basic emergency administration possible. For example, if the primary Screen is down for service, you can select a specific Screen and view its log.

If you have configured your centralized management group with multiple Screens and the Screens' names differ from the host name, be sure to use the correct host name if you want to view the information for that Screen. This name must match the host name in the /etc/hosts file.
