Platform Manager Logs
The Platform Manager logs contain information about operations and errors that occur on Platform Manager, such as updating configuration settings for a product instance and processing inline templates. The Platform Manager default and wrapper logs rotate by size, based on the size limit configured for the log file. The default size limit is 10MB. When Platform Manager rotates the log files, Platform Manager appends a number to the log file name, but the current log files are always named default.log and wrapper.log.
Note that the logs might include user details required for auditing or troubleshooting, for example external user IDs. For information about how to delete the logs, see Deleting Logs.
Platform Manager uses this format for log entries:
time_stamp log_level correlation_id message_text
For a description and details about the correlation ID, see Using the Correlation ID.
The following sections describe the Platform Manager logs available from the Logs tab in the Command Central web user interface.
Default Log
Use the default log to monitor the progress of Platform Manager operations and check about warning or error messages that might signal impending or actual failure.
Following is an example snippet from a Platform Manager default log:
