Logging

Menu path: UMS Web App > Logging

In the Logging area, you can search for log messages according to the configured search parameters. The last search configuration is automatically saved and restored on the next visit of the Logging area.

When no values are specified in the search mask, all available log messages are shown.

Log messages are available if

• logging is enabled in the UMS Console under UMS Administration > Global Configuration > Logging. See Logging.
• a user has sufficient rights. For details on where you can define permissions, see General Administrator Rights and Access Rights in the Administration Area.

Only log messages for the actions performed in the UMS Web App are currently displayed. Logs of the UMS Console are not included.

Directly after the deletion of logs, a message "No matching logs found" appears. Wait for the next reindexing to view the updated list of the log messages.

It is recommended to delete unnecessary logs regularly to avoid problems with insufficient disk space.
