Introduction
The Digital Voice Processing System outputs two kinds of logs: error log and system activity (or
call record) log. All logs are in ASCII format which allows printing or viewing them with simple
DOS commands.
Log files record system events and provide an audit trail used by the administrator to analyze how
the system is being used.
Error Log
The error log is output to a file named HELLO.ERR. Each line or record in this file contains four
fields. The first field is the date the message was added to the log. The second field is the time. The
third field is the channel (or line) number. If the channel number is zero the message is not linked
to a particular channel. The rest of the log is text that describes the problem or error.
There are three error log messages that indicate system initiation and system termination as
illustrated in the following sample:
The first two lines show the Digital Voice Processing System startup. The third line shows that the
Digital Voice Processing System was brought down.
System Activity Log
The system log is comprised of separate files. Each day the Digital Voice Processing System runs, it
generates a different file. The files are stored in the
C:\HELLO\LOGS directory. The name of the
file is
HEmmddyy.LOG, where mm is the month, dd is the day, and yy is the year. For example, the
log for May 7, 1995 is named
HE050795.LOG.
