How to Display Log or Trace Files on a Server

You can view the contents of the Sun QFS and Sun SAM log and trace files on the current server. This is useful when a fault condition occurs and you want to investigate its cause.

  1. From the Manage Hosts menu or the Managed Hosts page, select the server that contains the log or trace files you want to view.
  2. From the Metrics & Reports section, choose System Details.

    The Server Configuration page is displayed.

  3. At the top of the Server Configuration page, click Log and Trace.
  4. In the Log and Trace section, click the path name of the log or trace file that you want to view.

    A window is displayed that enables you to view the contents of the selected file. This window periodically refreshes so that the latest information in the file is displayed.
