To view logs, the "appuser" must enter a password. The initial password setting for "appuser" is eagle2.

Note:

The "appuser" is the only user authorized to view logs.

After logging in, the following View Logs menu options are available:

  • LNPTRANS
  • Maintenance
  • RTDB
  • Provisioning
  • RTDB Audit
  • LSMS Audit
  • CGI
  • GS

The Debug / List ELAP Software Processes screen shows the ELAP processes started when the ELAP boots or when the “Start ELAP software” prompt is used. The /bin/ps -auxw command generates this list. (The operating system's manual page for the ps command thoroughly defines the output for this command.).

When you have finished viewing the List ELAP Software Processes screen, you can click the Back button on the browser or select another menu item to perform.
