About the operational log
The operational log records events that Symantec Network Security is
processing, such as startup and shutdown of the Network Security
software or
appliance node, or errors experienced within the node. The Network Security
console provides a view of the operational log file of each node via Admin > Node
> Manage Logs.
All actions or modifications made in the Network Security console to a software
or appliance node are logged to the operational log file, which includes
information such as the date and time, name, type of modification, and other
data specific to the modification.
Note:
If you reset the system clock backward on a software or appliance node,
you must rotate the log database. If you do not, the incident list displayed in the
Network Security console may not update properly during the time difference.
Note:
For information about how to convert logs to text manually, see
“About
the Knowledge Base”
on page 22.
