Downloading Enterprise Scanner (ES) log files

Use the Log File Management page in the Proventia Manager to download an Enterprise Scanner (ES) log file from the Enterprise Scanner agent to a local workstation.

About this task

When you download a log file, Enterprise Scanner creates a backup of the log file for you to download. Enterprise Scanner saves the file with the standard name for the log file, but it appends the current time and date stamp, as in the following example: Crm.Trace.log.20060324141336.bak

This backup log file remains on your agent after you download it. You should delete these backup log files when you no longer need them.

This task also provides a procedure on downloading get log files. The get log files are as follows:

vgetFullLogs (fulllogs.tz): A compressed tar archive that contains all the files and subdirectories in the following directories:

/cache/log/esm

/etc/crm

/tmp /usr/bin/esm/GroupInfo

vgetLogs (logs.tz): A compressed tar archive that contains all the files and subdirectories from the /cache/log/esm directory.
