(12.04.120) User Logs in the IGEL UMS

The logging system is used by the UMS and the registered devices in order to record all changes to the database. Only successful actions are logged. You will not find details of any errors in the log file of the UMS GUI Server.


The logging system is subdivided into two areas:

Messages:

Actions initiated by a user

Events:

Actions initiated by a device

Administration

The administration settings for the logging procedure are configured in the IGEL UMS Console under UMS Administration > Global Configuration > Logging, see Logging.
