Logger Diagnostic Files
The Logger utility is a troubleshooting tool that continually records MCU
system messages and saves them to files in the hard drive of the MCU. For
each time interval defined in the system, a different data file is created. New
files are created until the maximum size allowed for messages (usually most
of the hard drive free disk space) is reached. When the maximum file size
limit is exceeded, the system overwrites the old files in a cyclical order (that
is, the new file overwrites the first file). The files may be retrieved from the
hard drive for off-line analysis and for debugging purposes. The files to which
the messages are saved are compressed in order to conserve space and allow
the maximum number of system messages to be stored.
The Logger utility is activated at the MCU startup. The Logger is disabled
when the MCU is Reset manually (from the MCU unit), or when there is a
problem with the Logger utility (such as a problem in the hard drive where the
files are saved). In such cases, the data is lost.
When the MCU is reset from the MGC Manager, the files are saved on the
MCU hard drive.
The Logger Files
The following files are saved to the MCU hard drive:
•
Data files - These files contain the messages generated by the system in a
given time interval. The default time interval is 10 minutes. The file is
named using the following format: logNNNNN.log where NNNNN
represents the file’s sequential order in the creation cycle, for example,
log00011.log is the eleventh file to be created.
•
Index file - This file contains a list of all the data files currently saved to
the MCU hard drive, the time and date of the first message and the time
and date of the last message included in each file.
The Logger Utility must be enabled in the system.cfg. For details, see “Edit
“system.cfg”” on page 5-60.
