Fortinet 550 FortiWeb 5.0 Patch 6 Administration Guide
2. Configure these settings:
Setting name Description
Disk Enable to record log messages to the local hard disk on the FortiWeb
appliance.
If the FortiWeb appliance is logging to its hard disk, you can use the web
UI to view log messages stored locally on the FortiWeb appliance. For
details, see “Viewing log messages” on page 557.
Log Level Select the severity level that a log message must equal or
exceed in order to be recorded to this storage location.
For information about severity levels, see “Log severity
levels” on page 544.
Caution: Avoid recording log messages using low
severity thresholds such as information or notification to
the local hard disk for an extended period of time. A low
log severity threshold is one possible cause of frequent
logging. Excessive logging frequency can cause undue
wear on the hard disk and may cause premature failure.
When log
disk is full
Select what the FortiWeb appliance will do when the local
disk is full and a new log message occurs, either:
•Do not log — Discard the new log message.
•Overwrite oldest logs — Delete the oldest log file in
order to free disk space, then store the new log
message in a new log file.
