NOTE:

By default, no logs are created for an application.

Configuration of DebugLog XML file

You can use the Debug Configuration Editor (DCE) console application to configure the debug configuration XML file. This tool can be

used to commit, exclude, or modify the debug configuration file.

To commit, exclude, or modify the debug configuration file, enter the following commands on the Debug Configuration Editor:

•

To commit the file and obtain the logfiles—

DebugConfigEditor.exe -CommitLog -Path "DebugLog.xml"

. This

command commits the file present in the path that is mentioned in

Debug.xml

.

•

To exclude the collection of logs from a folder mentioned in the

Debug.xml

—

DebugConfigEditor.exe -ExcludeLog -

Path "DebugLog.xml"

.

•

To configure the

Debug.xml

file to collect different types of logs—

DebugConfigEditor.exe -UpdateConfig -Path

"DebugLog.xml" -LogPath "Path of Log File" -LogFileName "Name of log File" -LogLevel

"logLevel"

.

The following table describes the different LogLevel values that can be used:

Saving files and using local drives

Thin clients use an embedded operating system with a fixed amount of disk space. Dell recommends you to save files that you want to

keep on a server rather than on a thin client.

CAUTION:

Be careful of application settings that write to the drive C, which resides in disk space. By default, these

applications write cache files to the drive C on the local system. If you must write to a local drive, change the application

settings to use the drive Z. The default configuration settings that are mentioned in Managing Users and Groups with

User Accounts minimize writing to the drive C for factory-installed applications.

drive Z

Drive Z is the on-board volatile memory (Dell Wyse RAM Disk) of the thin client. It is recommended that you do not use this drive to save

data that you want to retain.

For information about using the Z drive with roaming profiles, see

Participating in Domains

.

drive C

Drive C is the on-board non-volatile flash memory. Dell recommends that you avoid writing to drive C. Writing to drive C reduces the free

disk space. If the free disk space on drive C is reduced under 500 MB, the thin client becomes unstable.

NOTE:

Dell recommends that 500 MB of disk space is left unused. If the free disk space is reduced to 500 MB, the thin

client image is irreparably damaged and it is necessary for you to contact an authorized service center to repair the thin

client.

Enabling the Unified Write Filter protects the disk from damage and presents an error message if the cache is overwritten. However, if

this message occurs you are unable to flush files of the Unified Write Filter cache and any thin client configuration changes still in cache is

lost. Items that are written to the Unified Write Filter cache or directly to the disk if the Unified Write Filter is disabled during normal

operations include:

•

Favorites

•
