How to Use the Create Log Group Screen

To open the Create Log Group screen, from the Dashboard menu, select Cisco Web Tools > Log Collector > Create Log Group.

To Create a Log Group

To create a log group:

1.Select the Cisco product(s) whose logs will be collected by this group. You can collect logs for:

ƒICM (AWs, PGs, Call Routers, and Loggers)

ƒCall Manager

ƒCollaboration Server

ƒE-Mail Manager

ƒMedia Blender

2.Click Next. All nodes defined on the Support Tools system list that belong to the selected products are listed.

Note: This list may also include any nodes whose product type is unknown (blank). The most common reason for an unknown product type is that the node has never been contact by the Support Tools Server. For example, it was added to the system list (via System Management screen) but the connection was not tested or the node has never been selected as a current system.

3.Select the system(s) whose logs you want to collect.

4.Click Next.

5.Enter a name (up to 32 characters long), and optionally a description, for the log group. It's a good idea to choose an intuitive name that will help other users understand what type of logs this group collects.

6.If the product you selected is:

ICM, you must indicate which ICM system processes you want to collect logs for. For each ICM system, the screen lists:
