In a multi-server, hierarchical environment, users can collect logs from one or more servers from a single web page. Log onto the top-most server of the group of servers, such as the Worklist server, and do the following:
Click the Logs tab under the Admin tab.
Define and apply your search criteria.
Click the main Filter button above the table, , to display the full filter page.
In the hidden filters section, select the server(s) you want to include in your search from the Logging Server field.
Click Apply.
The server issues the query request to each of the selected servers, collects the matching entries, and displays them in the browser according to the defined sorting rules.
Collecting logs from multiple servers may take a long time and can place a burden on the servers and the network. Some guidelines for collecting logs from multiple servers are as follows:
Define your search criteria and sort order using the local server only, before adding servers to the Logging Server field. This limits the number of time-consuming query requests issued across the network.
Make your default Logs table filter search the local server only. (This is the system default.) Otherwise, you issue a time-consuming data collection just by clicking on the Logs tab.
