Log Files
The CX5500 system logs various events to files stored in the flash file system and periodically uploads
these log files to the provisioning server. The files are stored in the phone’s home directory or a user-
configurable directory. You can also configure a phone to send log messages to a syslog server.
There is one log file for the UC Software. When a phone uploads its log files, the files are saved on the
provisioning server with the MAC address of the phone prepended to the file name. For example,
0004f200360b-app.log
is the file associated with MAC address 00f4f200360b. The application log file is
uploaded periodically or when the local copy reaches a predetermined size. For more information on log
file contents, see the reference section
<log/>
.
The amount of logging that the phone performs can be tuned for the application to provide more or less
detail on specific components of the phone’s software. For example, if you are troubleshooting a SIP
signaling issue, you are not likely interested in DSP events. Logging levels are adjusted in the
configuration files or via the Web Configuration Utility. You should not modify the default logging levels
unless directed to by Polycom Customer Support. Inappropriate logging levels can cause performance
issues on the phone.
In addition to logging events, the phone can be configured to automatically execute command-line
instructions at specified intervals that output run-time information such as memory utilization, task status,
or network buffer contents to the log file. These techniques should only be used in consultation with
Polycom Customer Support.
Logging Options
Each of the components of the Polycom UC software is capable of logging events of different severity.
This allows you to capture lower severity events in one part of the application, and high severity events
for other components.
The following are two options for retrieving system log files for the CX5500 system:
●
USB drive
●
Log level parameter settings
When you connect a USB flash drive to the CX5500 system, the system creates a new folder on the flash
drive. The folder is named
with the device’s serial number and the system’s log files are saved as .tar files
in the device folder.
