eG Administration

MANAGER SETTINGS - LOG SETTINGS The LOG SETTINGS section will appear when you click on the Log Settings subnode under the Manager settings node of the SETIINGS tree structure. In this LOG SETTINGS section, the following settings can be defined: The eG manager runs database cleanup operations at pre-configured frequencies. By default, the eG manager logs the details of a cleanup in the cleanup_log file in the <EG_INSTALL_DIR>\manager\logs directory. The details such as when the cleanup started, when it ended, the duration of the cleanup, what was cleaned up, errors during cleanup, etc., are logged, so that administrators are enabled to efficiently troubleshoot issues (if any) during cleanup. If, for some reason, you want to disable this logging activity, set the Log eG database cleanup operations to Yes. Once key reports are scheduled to be emailed to specific recipients, the eG manager, by default, creates a schedule_log file in the <EG_INSTALL_DIR>\manager\logs directory, to which the success/failure of the report scheduling activity is logged. If you do not want to maintain this log file, then you can disable logging of report scheduling activities, by setting the Log the scheduling of reports flag to No. The eG manager, by default, logs the details of the day-end trend activity, so that administrators know when, how, and for how long trending occurred; this information enables administrators to troubleshoot issues with trending. A trend_log file is created in the <EG_INSTALL_DIR>\manager\logs directory for this purpose. However, if need be, trend logging can be disabled, by setting the Log data trending activity flag to No. By default, the eG Enterprise system performs threshold logging - i.e., the ability to record threshold activities in a log file. A thresh_log file is created in the <EG_INSTALL_DIR>\manager\logs directory, to which all threshold-related processes are logged. However, if need be, threshold logging can be disabled, by setting the Log threshold computation activity flag to No. Finally, click the Update button.
