Policy Log
Every Policy generates a log when it
is running. The Client enables you to view both real-time log
information as well as historic logs. When you are viewing a Policy
in the Client, the Log and
Log History windows will
display the real-time and historic logs, respectively, relating to
that Policy.
Note: It is recommended to use the
Operator Console for real-time observation of Policy
execution.
Real-time Log
The Log windows will display the real-time
log of the Policy. The log displays when the Policy was started and
the object that is currently running in the Policy will have the
label "running" beside it. The log enables you to determine if
there are any problems with specific objects in your Policy.
Historic Log
The Log History window displays all the
previous executions of the Policy you have selected. The time that
the Policy started and ended is displayed at the top of each log
entry. The result of each object execution is displayed for each
entry.
Double-click an object in the log to
view the result of the execution of that object.
The Details dialog displays the
Name, Type, Status, Start Time and End Time of the object. The
Details dialog also enables
you to browse the Published Data that was published by the object
when it was executed. Use this information when troubleshooting
problems with your Policy.
Click the
button to view the details of the next object in
the Policy and click the
to view the details of the previous object.
