Displaying a Log File in a Command Prompt Window
The software ships with tail.exe, which can display and update a log file in a command prompt window. This utility is extremely helpful if you do not want to enable the option that lets the management server service interact with the desktop.
To display a log file in a command prompt window:
1.Open a command prompt window.
2.Go to the %MGR_DIST%\logs directory by entering the following at the command prompt.
c:\>cd %MGR_DIST%\logs
3.Enter the following at the command prompt window:
%MGR_DIST%\logs>tail
where appstorm.<timestamp>.log is the log file you want displayed in the command prompt window and <timestamp> is the timestamp for the log file.
The tail.exe utility checks the file for updates and appends them to text in the command prompt window.

Changing the Provider Log Level
The management server obtains information from its discovered elements through providers, which communicate with the hardware interface. These providers provide by default superficial logging to
the %JBOSS4_DIST%\server\appiq\logs\appstorm.<timestamp>.log file. You can change the level of logging provided by selecting the new level of logging from the Provider Log Setting menu on the Product Health page (Options > Storage Essentials > Manage Product Health in HP Systems Insight Manager), selecting Log Files and then clicking Apply. Only one logging level option can be selected.
