Displaying Channel Log Files

Channel logging events can be useful for network traffic analysis and problem troubleshooting. Each event represents the receipt or processing of a message.


 

Displaying Channel Log Files in Syslog

Logging is performed through the syslog facility. You can view the following events in the syslog file:

Info - Normal authentication, including Login, Logout, and broken connection.
Notify - Identifies repeated Login failures and mailbox access errors.
Err - Shows fatal system error, including out of memory, unexpected signal, etc.
Alert - Shows fatal disk error, including possible mailbox corruption. This will not happen with routine filesystem full errors, which are recoverable.
