3Using Log Files for Troubleshooting in ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0

Page 4: EPO 40 Troubleshooting de Arquivos Log

Troubleshooting with Log FilesePolicy Orchestrator includes many log files that you can use for troubleshooting. This documentdescribes how to use the log files and provides the following information:

• Name and location of log files.

• Typical issues requiring troubleshooting, and the log files likely to be helpful.

• Setting the size of log files and the depth and scope of logging.

• When changes to logging settings take effect.

• Types of log files: McAfee Agent log files and ePolicy Orchestrator log files. Five of the filesare associated with the McAfee Agent:

• AGENT_<SYSTEM>.LOG

• FRMINST_<SYSTEM>.LOG

• MCSCRIPT.LOG

• PRDMGR_<SYSTEM>.LOG

• UPDATERUI_<SYSTEM>.LOG

All other log files are associated with ePolicy Orchestrator and its installer.

Log file size and BACKUP logs

When a log file reaches it maximum size, BACKUP is added to the file name extension and anew log file is created. For example, when AGENT_<SYSTEM>.LOG reaches it maximum size,its name becomes AGENT_<SYSTEM>_BACKUP.LOG. If a BACKUP log already exists, it isoverwritten. Depending on how recently the BACKUP was created, it may contain current entries.Examine both log files to ensure comprehensiveness.

The default log size is 1MB. To change the size, create the DWORD value LOGSIZE in the registrykey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NETWORK ASSOCIATES\EPOLICY ORCHESTRATOR,then set the value data to the size desired. For example, 2=2MB.

Logging levels for debuggingThis section provides information about setting logging levels for logs in general. For informationabout adjusting the logging of the Tomcat servlet container, see Adjusting the Tomcat log level.

The scope and depth of the information in most log files are determined by the log level, avalue ranging from 1 to 8.

• Messages logged at each level include all messages at the current level and all lower logginglevels.

• The default value is 7, generally considered adequate for ordinary debugging.

• Log level 8 produces output, including every SQL query, whether or not there is an error.Log level 8 also provides communication details for troubleshooting network and proxy serverissues.

When setting changes take effectThis section defines the interval between the moment that a log file setting is changed and themoment the change takes effect.

• When a setting is changed using the registry, the interval is usually a minute or less. TheDWORD registry value that controls logging is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NETWORKASSOCIATES\EPOLICY ORCHESTRATOR\LOGLEVEL.

• When a setting is changed in an INI file or an XML file, the change usually takes effectimmediately.

• In some instances, when a change takes effect upon restarting the system, the user controlsthe interval.

Within one minuteUPDATERUI_<SYSTEM>.LOG

Adjusting the Tomcat log levelThe file name of the Tomcat log is ORION.LOG. To adjust its logging level, do the following.

Task

1 Open the LOG-CONFIG.XML file, located at:C:\PROGRAMFILES>\McAfee\ePolicyOrchestrator\Server\conf\orion

2 In the following line of text, replace “warn” with “info” or “debug”: <root><priority value="warn"/><appender-ref ref="ROLLING" /><appender-ref ref="STDOUT/></root>

3 Save and close the file.

Tomcat automatically adjusts the log level when the service is restarted.

Logging agent updating and deployment scriptsThe agent uses MCSCRIPT.LOG to report script commands used during updating and deployment.To enable, set the following DWORD value on the client’s registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NETWORK ASSOCIATES\TVD\SHAREDCOMPONENTS\FRAMEWORK\DWDEBUGSCRIPT=2

McAfee recommends that you delete this key when you are done troubleshooting.

Troubleshooting policy updatesTo troubleshoot incremental policy update issues from the server-side, do the following:

Task

1 Create the DWORD registry value SAVEAGENTPOLICY = 1 inHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NETWORK ASSOCIATES\EPOLICYORCHESTRATOR.

2 Restart all ePolicy Orchestrator services.

Detailed descriptions of failures, including source files and line numbers, appear in theapplication log for the component experiencing issues. The ePolicy Orchestrator servercreates the file <AGENTGUID>-<TIMESTAMP>.XML at <INSTALLATION PATH>\DB\DEBUG,which contains a copy of the content that the server deployed.In the following line of text,replace “warn” with “info” or “debug”.

3 Save and close the file.

11Using Log Files for Troubleshooting in ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0

Page 12: EPO 40 Troubleshooting de Arquivos Log

Interpreting Windows error codesTo understand Windows error messages, identify the error code and look it up in the MSDNlibrary.

1 Locate messages of type e or E in the log file.

2 Identify the time that the problem occurred, if known.

3 Note the Windows error code associated with the problem event.

4 Find the error code in the MSDN library at:http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681381.aspxFor example, when tracking down an error message that includes code 1326, navigate toand click the code in the list of system error codes. The explanation of the code is displayed:1326 ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password

NOTE: You can also use the ERRLOOK.EXE utility to determine the cause of these errorcodes. This utility is distributed with Microsoft Visual Studio

Agent activity logThe agent activity log (AGENT_<SYSTEM>.XML) contains copies of messages from theAGENT_<SYSTEM>.LOG, including translated messages, of types “e”, “w”, and “i”, (correspondingto logging levels 1 – 3). This file is not intended for debugging, but as information for users notlikely to be troubleshooting. Messages of type “x” (logging level 4) can be included in the activitylog. For information on setting levels, see Logging levels for debugging.

Information in the activity log also appears in the Agent Monitor.

If you enable remote access to the agent activity log file, you can also view the agent debuglog files remotely by clicking View debug log (current or previous) in the agent activity logfile. For instructions, see “Agent Activity Logs” and “Viewing the agent activity log” in the ePolicyOrchestrator 4.0 Product Guide.

Use of the VirusScan update logThe UPDATETXT.LOG file in VirusScan Enterprise 8.0i and 8.5i provides information derivedfrom the AGENT_<SYSTEM>.LOG. It does not provide any additional information than the agentlog provides. However, VirusScan reformats the information for compatibility with previousversions. In addition, users can control the content that is displayed in the UPDATETXT.LOGand can designate its location.
