Log Files

At runtime, uTel, uLite, uPilot, and uOne create log files in C:\CiscoSystems\uOne\logs path. The log files are periodically cleaned out of this directory by the interval settings in the uLogRemover.ini file.

Using uLite Logs

uLite logs can be found at the C:\CiscoSystems\uOne\logs directory. The files are listed as uLite.XXXXXXXX.out and can be viewed using Wordpad. The following information discusses the uLite logging process which can be helpful when reviewing uLite logs.

Using uOne Logs

uOne log files can be found at the C:\CiscoSystems\uOne\logs directory. The files are listed as uOne.XXXXXXXX.out and can be viewed using Wordpad. There is a separate uOne.out file for every instance of uOne. The log file shows the client/server interaction between the uOne application and uTel, the Directory Server, and the Messaging Server. The following table reflects the particular fields of information shown in a log file.

Using uPilot Logs

uPilot log files can be found at C:\CiscoSystems\uOne\logs directory. The files are listed as uPilot.XXXXXXXX.XXX.out and can be viewed using Wordpad.

Using uTel Logs

The uTel.ini file indicates at what level logging is being performed. The uTel logs can be found at the C:\CiscoSystems\uOne\logs directory. The files include uTel.dbg, uTel.XXXXXXXX.out and uTel.XXXXXXXX.err, and can be viewed using Wordpad.

The level of logging for uTel is determined by settings in the [DBG] section of the uTel.ini file. See "The .ini Files" chapter of this guide for more information on setting the logging level for the uTel.ini file.

Third-Party Logs

Understanding NT Tools

There are two tools in Windows NT which are used to gather and control information on the performance and logging of the NT system. They are the Event Viewer and the Task Manager.

Event Viewer

The Event Viewer is the tool you can use to monitor NT events in your system. You can use Event Viewer to view and manage System Security and Application event logs. It can be accessed by the following steps.

Step 2 Select Programs, then Administrative Tools (Common).

Step 3 Select Event Viewer.

Task Manager

The Task Manager enables you to monitor and control your computer and the processes running on it. The various features you can access from the Task Manager are listed below.

• The Application tab shows the status of the programs (also known as tasks) that are currently running on your computer. From this window you can end, switch to, or start a program.

• The Processes tab shows information about the processes that are currently running on your computer. From this window, you can end a process.

• The Performance tab displays a dynamic overview of your computer's performance, including graphs for CPU and memory usage. The number of items running includes handles, threads, and processes. Information about physical, kernel, and commit memory is also included.

You can access the Task Manager by performing the following steps.

Step 2 Then select Task Manager.

Using Directory Server Logs

Error logs are used to record error messages generated by the Directory Server, specifically ns-slapd. These messages can describe error conditions, but more often they contain informative conditions such as server startup and shutdown times, and the port number the server uses. This log contains differing amounts of information depending on the current setting of the Log Level parameter. The error log is located at:

Access Logs are used to record each database access. The following information is recorded in the log file: IP of the client machine that accessed the database, operations performed (for example, search, add, modify), result of the access (for example, the number of entries returned). The access log is located at:
