System Log (System Log) screen
The System Log screen displays logged information of events within Virtual Connect Manager. For more
information about the log entries, see "System Log entry format (on page
39 )."
To access the System Log screen, click System Log in the left navigation tree, or select System Log from the
Tools pull-down menu.
Events are logged with the most recent event displayed at the end of the list. Use the scroll bar on the right of
the screen to scroll through the list if it is longer than the display box. When the log reaches maximum
capacity, the oldest logged event is automatically deleted as new events are added.
Click Refresh to display the most current information.
System Log entry format
A wide variety of events are generated by Virtual Connect and logged into the System Log, or SysLog. The
remote logging capability is supported using the syslog protocol defined in RFC 3164. The remote logging
feature also provides an option for transmission over TCP and secure transmission support using stunnel. The
events generated by Virtual Connect follow the same format and contain a time stamp, the Virtual Connect
object information that generated the event, and a detailed message.
The System Log entries use the following format:
[Date in RFC 3164 or ISO 8601 format]T[Time][Time zone] [hostname]
[processname] [[ObjectShortName]:[ObjectName]:[EventCode]:[Severity]]
[Event Message]
In the following example:
