Backup Manager Job Log Options

The log options determine the level of detail that is included in the log report for the operation. The log options can be set in the following windows: Backup, Restore, Compare, Media Assure & Scan, Copy, Count, and Purge. Arcserve Backup provides the following log options:

• Log all activity--Record all of the activity that occurs while the job is running in the Job Log.

Note: When you specify Log all activity, Arcserve Backup creates a log file named JobLog_<Job ID>_<Job Name>.Log. With this log file, you can view detailed logging information about the job. Arcserve Backup stores the log files in the following directory:

C\Program Files\CA\ARCserve Backup\LOG

• Log summary only--Record summary information on the job (including source, destination, session number, and totals) and errors.
• Log disabled--Do not record any information about this job in the Job Log.
