14.3.1 Checking log files
JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Manager acquires log data for each event that occurred. Users can check the following two types of logs:
-
Windows event log
-
MAIN.LOG file
Use the Windows Event Viewer to check the Windows event log. Use a text editor to check the MAIN.LOG file, which is stored in JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Manager-installation-directory\mgr\log. The following describes each log file.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Checking the Windows event log
You can use the Event Viewer to check the event log data acquired while using JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Manager.
In the Log menu of the Event Viewer, you can select Select Computer to check events of other hosts running Windows. For details about how to use the Event Viewer, see the Windows documentation or Help.
Numbers (event IDs) displayed in the event column in the Event Viewer are equivalent to message IDs. The following describes the meanings of the numbers.
Event ID |
Description |
---|---|
0 to 999 |
Windows interface-related |
1000 to 1999 |
TCP/IP-related |
7000 to 7999 |
Installation-related |
In the Event Viewer window, double-click an event to display a detailed description of that event. For example, if a system error occurred due to insufficient disk space on the managing server or relay system, a message indicating that disk space is insufficient is output to the Event Viewer system log. In this case, free up enough disk space by, for example, deleting unnecessary files, and then retry the operation.
Depending on the event, memory dump information might be output in event details. If you contact us about JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 errors, also please provide us with this memory dump information also.
