System Debugging Logs
Device Manager stores records of its execution and communication events in log files on
the host computer’s hard drive. These log files are useful for debugging purposes.
WARNING!
Both log files continue to grow larger the longer you use Device
Manager and/or the batch service. Therefore it is necessary to regularly delete the files
on a periodic basis, or else you will compromise hard drive space.
Execution Log
The execution log stores Device Manager and batch service activity as:
\CMWA 8800Log\CMWA 8800Log.txt on the hard drive on which Device Manager is
installed. By default, only error messages are logged for the execution events.
However, the execution log’s content is user determined by enabling specific commands
in the
Settings.config
file.
Communication Log
A communication log that stores commands sent from Device Manager to the gateway
and the gateway’s response back to Device Manager is created for each gateway for
each day. The communication log is stored as:
\CMWA 8800Log\”GatewayIPAddress\CMWA 8800CommLogYYYYMMDD.txt.
It is recommended that these historical files are deleted regularly unless they are
necessary for examining system problems.
