Enterprise Scanner Logs and Alerts
Overview
Introduction
Enterprise Scanner maintains log files on the appliance to use for diagnosing problems
with the agent. The log files contain details about the scanning and operational processes
running on the agent.
Requirement
To view logs and alerts, you must log on to the Proventia Manager for your agent. (See
page 200.)
Log size
Enterprise Scanner performs a refresh procedure to limit the size of individual log files.
When a log file reaches 50MB, Enterprise Scanner backs up and stores the current log file,
and then generates a new log file.
