ADMIN - Logs Config
System Log Configuration
Use this page to configure the SyncServers logging subsystem. The SyncServer uses klogd
and syslogd, the standard logging facilities. What is logged and where it is logged is based on
the options selected in this page. A default set of options is preconfigured that should provide
a level of detail sufficient for the majority of applications. Each entry is broken down into facil-
ity and priority, where facility is the part of the system such as the kernel or the application
daemons and priority indicates the severity of the message. The priority ranges from
"Emerg", which represents only very significant events like kernel panics to "Debug", where
even debug messages are logged. Messages are generally logged to different files to allow
easier parsing. The messages file is unique however in that its default configuration captures
all messages flowing through the logging daemons. But, due to the high volume of traffic, it is
cleared at each power cycle or reboot.
Note: Most users should leave the logs configured in the default manner unless directed to
make changes by Microsemi technical support.
Log Types
syslog
: syslog holds messages about system level events. Examples of system events are
privilege changes (e.g., sudo) and messages about regularly schedules events such as cron.
auth.log
: The authentication log contains entries regarding authentication events from login or
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module).
kern.log
: The kernel log contains entries submitted by the kernel. Examples of kernel events
are network errors or hardware changes.
