Important
While there are other types of logs besides error logs, the other types of logs will not help you troubleshoot errors. Instead, they provide you with basic information (see “Basic information logs” on page 88).
The autoloader generates four types of logs. For troubleshooting errors, you will only use one type, Hard Error logs. The screen displays the error message and the Hard Error logs record all hard error events.
