Debugging Level Scope
You can set debugging for an individual user session and/or on a system wide scope for all users. If you select system level logging, you can specify the Portal components to monitor.
To Access Debugging
- In the Portal, within a report window, enter the following key combination:
Ctrl+Alt+D
Note:
Do not activate the Debug logging without first consulting with Cohesity Support.
To Set Debugging for an Individual User Session
You can set debugging for an individual user session.
- Click Reports to enable/disable the database logging for the current user session.
To Set Debugging for System Wide Components
Enable/disable the specific logs you want to collect across the Portal.
- Select All unless you have been asked to only choose specific components to collect the related logs:
Web
Service
Domain
Data
Third Party
To Reset the Logging Level
Because changing the log level can impact resources and ultimately system performance, a time period for resetting the level is required.
- Choose a time period for the logging to reset. This selection applies to both session-based logging and system wide. Once selected, the logging level will automatically reset to the default level when the time period is complete. The default is 5 minutes.
Note:
Session-based logging is automatically terminated when the user logs out as well.
To Enable Logging Database Messages to a File
The database message logging framework writes to a table by default, but you can write to a log file for a specified duration. This file can then be made available and downloaded using the Support Tools.
- Select a duration for all database messages to be written to a log file.
To Reset the Logging Level
Because changing the log level can impact resources and ultimately system performance, a time period for resetting the level is required.
- Choose a time period for the logging to reset. This selection applies to both session-based logging and system wide.
Once selected, the logging level will automatically reset to the default level when the time period is complete. The default is 5 minutes.
Note:
Session-based logging is automatically terminated when the user logs out as well.
