Using the Endpoint Security Server Web UI, you can configure logging levels (type and amount of logging data) to determine the type of messages logged by the Host Management module.
The table lists the log levels and their description. Each log level includes log messages from lower log levels. For example, alert logs include emergency log messages, critical logs include alert and emergency log messages, and so on. Emergency is the lowest logging level and Debug is the highest logging level. The default logging level is Debug.
Logging Level | Description |
|---|---|
Emergency | Logs system failure messages that identify total system failures on the host endpoint. These system failure messages cause the agent to stop functioning. |
Alert | Logs messages that identify crucial conditions on the host endpoint. These messages require immediate remediation, such as a corrupted system database. |
Critical | Logs critical messages that identify serious conditions on the host endpoint such as, hard drive errors. |
Error | Logs error messages that identify program errors on the host endpoint such as, missing files. |
Warning | Logs warning messages that identify non-critical and correctable errors on the host endpoint, such as a specified value being too large. |
Notice | Logs notification messages that identify minor problems on the host endpoint that do not inhibit regular agent function and for which defaults are used until the problem is resolved. |
Info | Logs Informational messages about regular system processing. |
Debug | Logs debugging messages. This logging level is normally used while debugging a program only. It includes all the types of logging messages. |
