Sun Java Enterprise System 5 Installation Guide for UNIX

ProcedureTo Run the Log Viewer

Because the Log Viewer operates in read-only mode, multiple users can run the Log Viewer at the same time.

  1. On the command line, navigate to the location of the Log Viewer:

    • Solaris SPARC: /var/sadm/prod/SUNWentsys5i/Solaris_sparc

    • Solaris x86: /var/sadm/prod/SUNWentsys5i/Solaris_x86

    • Linux: /var/sadm/prod/sun-entsys5i/Linux_x86

    • HP-UX: /var/sadm/prod/sun-entsys5i/HPUX_PA-RISC

  2. Start the Log Viewer.


    ./viewlog

    The Log Viewer main page is displayed.

  3. In the File menu, select a log file for display.

    If the file you select is not ULF, you receive a message saying the selected file is not ULF and cannot be selected. Only ULF files can be displayed using the Log Viewer.

    If no ULF log files are available, the installation or uninstallation might not be completed yet. Wait and try again.

  4. Choose Display Preferences and Search Criteria for your scenario.

  5. Click Search.

    The log table displays the records that match your filtering criteria.
