View and Manage the Client Log (client.log)

The CA SOI installation program installs a client.log file on the SA Manager. By default, it is located at SOI_HOME\tomcat\webapps\sam\console\logs.

The client.log file contains an entry for every user who logs on to the Operations Console. The Client Log page allows you to view the contents of client.log file. You can also use this page to clear the log and remove old entries.

Follow these steps:

  1. Launch the Dashboard.
  2. Click the Administration tab.
  3. Click the plus sign (+) next to the CA Service Operations Insight UI Server Configuration option.
  4. Click the plus sign (+) next to the server you want to configure.

    The configuration options appear.

  5. Click Client Log.
  6. (Optional) Enter a number in the Purge entries older than # days field, and then click Go.

    The log entries older than the specified number of days are removed from the log.

  7. (Optional) Click Clear Log.
