10.3 Viewing Logs through iManager

  1. In iManager, use one of the following methods to select a server in the tree where you are logged in:

    • In the Server field, type the Novell eDirectory distinguished server name for the server you want to manage, then press the Tab key or click somewhere on the page outside of the Server field to enter your selection. For example:

      afpserver.novell

    • Click the Search icon to open the eDirectory Object Selector. Browse or search the list to locate the server you want to manage, then click the server name.

    • Click the Object History icon to select a server you have recently managed.

      Wait for iManager to retrieve information about that server and display the appropriate information to the task page you are in.

  2. The status of the server is displayed in the status bar below the Server field. Click to view the log details.

  3. Select the General tab and scroll down to Version and Logging.

  4. Select the Enable Log option. This option turns the logging feature on and adds an entry to the log file. When logging is activated, AFP log and error messages are written to the /var/log/afptcpd/afptcp.log file.

If you want to record the status, debug, and error messages in the afptcp.log file, ensure that the Enable Status, Enable Debug, and Enable Error options are selected.
