To work with authorization server log files, use the Manage Authorization Server Log Files management page.

Procedure

  1. From the top menu, select Web > Manage > Authorization Server.
  2. Select the instance of interest.
  3. Select Manage > Logging.
  4. Work with the authorization server log files as needed.
    View the content of an authorization server log file
    1. Select the log file that you want to view.
    2. Click View. The content of the log file is displayed. By default, the last 100 lines of a log file are displayed if the file is longer than 100 lines. You can define the number of lines to display by entering the number in the Number of lines to view field and then click Reload. Optionally, you can provide a value in the Starting from line field to define which line in the log file to start viewing from. If the Starting from line field is set, then the Number of lines to view field determines how many lines to view forward from the starting line. If the Starting from line field is not set, then the Number of lines to view field determines how many lines to view from the end of the log file.
      Note: The maximum size that can be returned is 214800000 lines. If a size greater than that is specified, then the maximum (214800000 lines) is returned.
    3. Optional: Click Export to download the log file.
      Note: You must configure the software that blocks pop-up windows in your browser to allow pop-up windows for the appliance before files can be exported.
    Clear an authorization server log file
    1. Select the log file that you want to clear.
    2. Click Clear.
    3. On the Confirm Action confirmation page, click Yes. A system notification is displayed to indicate that the log file is successfully cleared. The original log file with empty content remains in the log list. Any rollover log files (for example, xxx.log.1 and xxx.log.2) are deleted.
    Export an authorization server log file
    1. Select the log file that you want to export.
    2. Click Manage > Export.
      Note: You must configure the software that blocks pop-up windows in your browser to allow pop-up windows for the appliance before files can be exported.
    3. Confirm the save operation in the browser window to export the file to a local location.
