Web Tools system logs 1 Web Tools system logs Web Tools uses the log4j framework to write the logs into a file When you launch Web Tools for the first time, it automatically creates the following directories. These directories are created under Web Tools directory if they are not available: • A directory under the user home directory. • The Web Tools Switch Support Save directory with the name format . The Web Tools Switch Support Save directory contains the following files: • Log4j.xml • WebTools.log • SwitchInfo.txt The SwitchInfo.txt file contains the following basic switch information: • Switch Name • Fabric OS version • Switch Type • Ethernet IPv4 • Ethernet IPv4 subnet mask • Ethernet IPv4 gateway The maximum size of the webtools.log file is 2MB. It is rolled into new file when the 5MB file size limit is exceeded. A backup file named webtools1.log is automatically created. Web Tools maintains only one webtools.log backup file at a time. The Web Tools debug dialog box can be used to enable the debug state and level for a module at runtime. If you are familiar with XML scripting, you can edit the configuration file (log4j.xml) to collect the data at startup. If you edit the configuration file, Web Tools need to be restarted. Contact your switch support supplier for assistance. Technical SupportSave logs From v7.1.0, WebTools allows you to log information of the switch at any given point of time.
