Logging
The Telnet Viewer has a logging function that saves the contents of a Telnet Viewer session to
a file. You may enable automatic logging or dynamically start logging at any time.
Additionally, you may pause, resume and stop logging, regardless of whether it was started
automatically or dynamically.
While logging is occurring or when it is paused, a Logging Status label appears in the status
panel at the bottom of the DSView management software Telnet Viewer window.
NOTE: When you enable or disable automatic logging, the logging will begin or end at the start of the next DSView
software Telnet Viewer session to that device. If you change the default log file directory used for automatic logging,
the change does not take effect until the next session to that device.
Log files
The format of log filenames is shown below, where <mmddyy> represents the month, day and
year, and <hhmmss> represents the current hour, minute and second in military time:
scvTelnet<mmddyy>_<hhmmss>.log
The default log directory is session-specific, that is, each Telnet Viewer session may have its
own location for storing logfiles. You may change the name of the file and the location of the
directory that stores the logfiles. If you do not change the default directory, logfiles are stored
in your home directory.
You may display a log file at any time, using a standard text editor. The screen buffer is written
to the log file when the buffer is full, or when logging is paused or stopped. To ensure the log
file is up-to-date, either pause or stop the logging.
To change the default log file directory:
1. Select Options - Session Properties from the menu or click the Session Settings icon in the
toolbar. The Session Properties dialog box will appear.
