Where Log Files Are Saved

The log file location depends on the log type:

Which Machine?

Log files are typically saved locally. For example, FSA log files are saved on the machine hosting the FSA; Account Import log files are saved on the CMS; and System log files are saved on the machine where an infrastructure error occurred. Note that log files stored on non-CMS machines are not replicated up to the CMS.

Which Folder?

In the current CA DLP release, log files are typically saved in CA's \data\log subfolder. On 32-bit machines, find this subfolder in the Windows All Users profile. On 64-bit machines, find this subfolder below the \ProgramData folder.

The relevant sections in this Deployment guide include log file details for individual utilities or agents.

The example below shows the \data\log location in a typical folder structure:

- All Users
  - Application Data
    - CA Technologies
      - CA DLP
        - data
          + FSA
          + log
          + PRC
+ Default User
