List of log files generated and maintained by the Applications Manager server monitoring agent
Here is the list of log files generated by the Linux and Windows server monitoring agent. The log files are stored in the same directory where the agent source file is installed. By default they are at:
- For Linux: <Installation_Directory>/ManageEngine/ApplicationsManager/monagent/logs
- For Windows: <Installation_Directory>\ManageEngine\ApplicationsManager\WinAgent\Monitoring\Logs
Legend
- File name: The name of the log file and the path where it is stored.
- Description: A brief description of the log file.
- Number of files maintained: The maximum number of log files in this category that will be stored.
- Maximum file size: The maximum size of log file in this category that will be stored. For example, 10 * 1MB means the path will contain 10 files of that particular log, with a size of 1MB each.
Once the maximum file size is reached, the oldest log file is deleted to make room for the new log file entries.
