4.6.4
Logging tab
During operation, ERAS creates a log (
Log filename
) about its activity which is configurable (
Log verbosity
). If the
Log to text file
option is selected, new log files will be created (
Rotate when greater than X MB
) and deleted on
a daily basis (
Delete rotated logs older than X days
).
The
Log to OS application log
option allows information to be copied to the system event viewer log (accessible via
Windows
Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event viewer
).
The
Debug Log
option should be disabled under normal circumstances.
By default, the text file output is saved to the following location:
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Eset\Eset Remote Administrator\Server\logs\era.log
NOTE:
We recommend leaving the
Log verbosity
set to
Level 2 – Above + Session Errors
.
Change the log level only if you are
experiencing problems, or if you are advised to do so by ESET’s Customer Care specialists.
