Logging helps SAP Control Center administrators
identify and track errors and other system events by recording messages about the events in
log files.
SAP Control Center maintains these logs:
- The client log – captures messages about activities in the
browser-based client components. These messages are generated by the component
product modules to display information that is pertinent to the user but not
critical enough to warrant a pop-up. Sybase also uses the client log to trace
client browser operations.
- Server logs – capture messages about activities during the
initialization sequence, such as starting services; auditing messages recording
logins and logouts; errors such as missed scheduled events; and other events on
the server. Server logs include:
- Component logs, which record only events concerning
individual product modules
- The SCC agent log, which is a composite log. In an SCC
server, the agent log records events in all product modules and in the
SAP Control Center framework. In an SCC agent,
the agent log records events in the agent.
- The repository log – captures information about inserts and
updates that have occurred in the SAP Control Center
repository, a SQL Anywhere database. This log is in SCC-3_3\log\repository.log.
- The alert services log – captures information about alert
service status and events, including execution of alert-triggered scripts (start
time, end time, and status and exit codes). This log is in SCC-3_3\log\alert-server.log.
