Viewing the Version Control Agent Log

The Log page displays information regarding specific tasks that have been executed.

To view the Version Control Agent Log, select the Log tab. The Log page is displayed.

You can navigate through a log that has multiple pages by clicking the numbers or the arrows at the bottom of the Log page.

You can display details for a specific task by clicking the detail link associated with the Task ID. The Status Icons column lists icons that denote the severity of each task. A definition of each status icon is shown below.

Severity Status Icons

• Severity–The severity of an event is reported by the status icons shown and defined above.

• Informational and Normal events are logged to confirm the internal event, such as startup, or the result of a successful task completion, such as a component install.

• Warning events can indicate a condition that might mean a feature of the Version Control Agent is not fully operational, such as an incorrect configuration.

• Major events are logged when a task or process fails. This severity can indicate a problem with the Version Control Agent but can also be caused by invalid input in a task or an external condition (such as a network problem), which can prevent a task from completing.

• Task ID–Clicking links in the Task ID column displays a filtered log for that task. Select the Log tab again or click Back from your browser to return to an unfiltered log. Tasks performed on behalf of an interactive user have an ID generated by the Version Control Agent. HP Systems Insight Manager commands provide an ID for the tasks performed by Group Configuration.

All log entries that are created by the Version Control Agent for a specific task have the same Task ID.

• Date/Time–The date and time are recorded when an event has occurred. The time is converted to the local time at the user's browser so that it represents the actual time the event occurred, even if the server is in a different time zone.

• Message–When additional information is available, a details link is displayed. You can click the details link to display details. The number displayed at the end of the message is the message reference number. To view details of a specific event, click the details link associated with the message you want to view.
