You can turn Visualizer client logging on or off by configuring
Visualizer log options. By default, Visualizer client logging is turned off.
Generally, you only turn on Visualizer client logging to assist you and your
administrator with troubleshooting.
Procedure:
- In the Visualizer, from the File menu, select Preferences.
- Click the Log Settings tab.
- Do one of the following in the Turn on logging check
box:
- Select the check box to turn Visualizer client logging on.
- Clear the check box to turn Visualizer client logging off.
- If you turned on logging, specify the type of logging by selecting
an option in the Log detail level drop-down list. If you are not sure which level to select, consult your administrator.
- In the Log file directory path do one of
the following:
- If you know the complete path to the directory to store the Visualizer
client logs, type the path that you want to use.
- If you want to browse to the directory, click the button next to the
field, select the directory, and then click Open to
select the complete path.
- Click the Submit button. A confirmation
message opens that states that you must restart the Visualizer for your changes
to take effect.
- In the confirmation message, click OK.
- Close the Visualizer.
- Open the Visualizer and log in.
The Visualizer logs the activity at the level that you specified,
and places the log files in the directory that you specified, until you turn
off Visualizer logging.
