Logs

The Logs dialog box displays the log messages generated by the VCS engine, VCS agents, and commands issued from Cluster Manager to the cluster. Use this dialog box to monitor and take actions on alerts on faulted global clusters and failed service group failover attempts.


Note   Note    To ensure the time stamps for engine log messages are accurate, make sure to set the time zone of the system running the Java Console to the same time zone as the system running the VCS engine.

    Checkmark  Click the VCS Logs tab to view the log type, time, and details of an event. Each message presents an icon in the first column of the table to indicate the message type. Use this window to customize the display of messages by setting filter criteria.
