Using Logs

A log file is a file that stores messages, which are sometimes called events or event log entries, generated by an

application, service, or operating system. The messages are used to track the operations performed by the system. Log

files are usually plain text (ASCII) files and usually have .log extensions.

You can use the PowerVault NAS Manager to access the log files.

Managing Logs

You can use the Logs feature to download, view, clear, and configure several types of event logs that are provided by the

system. The available logs are as follows:

Application log
