To change the default location of the sfm.log file, you must configure the /opt/sfm/conf/fmloggerconfig.xml file.

You can enable tracing for an EVWEB session. A session is the duration between a login and a logout. When you enable tracing, make sure that you set a trace level. EVWEB logs traces for a session for the set trace level. At the end of a session, tracing is automatically disabled. In an active session, the trace level remains valid until you modify it.

The traces for a session are also logged in the samlog.log. The path to the samlog.log file is /var/sam/log/samlog.log. From the GUI, you can access the samlog.log file from HP SMH home page -> Logs -> Samlog. The samlog.log file contains all the administrative commands executed on a system. The errors generated during the execution of these administrative commands are also stored in the samlog.log file.

NOTE

Tracing is available for administrators only. However,

 

non-administrators can view the trace files.
