Adding a new Logging Assistant record
The Add a New Logging Assistant Record panel contains two fields.
To create a new Logging Assistant record
- In the NetBackup Administration Console, in the left pane, select the Logging Assistant node.
- In the Actions menu, select New Logging Assistant Record. You can also select the operation by using the right-click menu or pressing the Enter key to display the New Logging Assistant Record dialog box.
- In the Logging Assistant Record ID text window, enter a unique descriptive name for the new record. Use numeric, alphabetic, plus, minus, underscore, and period characters. Do not use the minus (-) symbol as the first character or leave spaces between characters.
Veritas recommends that you use the Support Case ID as the Logging Assistant Record ID to more easily track the record through the troubleshooting process.
- In the optional Description field, enter a problem summary and the Job ID of the failed job (if applicable).
- The Actions area of this dialog box lists the possible actions that can occur when you click OK to leave this dialog:
Collect nbsu diagnostic information: Select this option to immediately display the Collect nbsu Output Wizard when you leave this dialog. This is often the first action to take after you create the Logging Assistant Record.
Setup debug logging: Select this option to immediately display the Setup Debug Logging Wizard after you leave this dialog.
No action, only create a record: Select this option to return to the main screen when you leave this dialog. The new record appears on the main screen.
Click OK to continue. Logging Assistant creates a Logging Assistant record in its database and adds it to the list of records in the Logging Assistant Records pane.
