7.3 Eye log
NOTE: as this is Eye logging, all the commands are to be given in the prompt of
the monitoring station, not in Carat or Sonar server.
The Eye unit has an in-memory circular log that can be followed real-time with the following
command:
# logread -f
Without any arguments the command shows of the whole log and returns immediately:
# logread
The logging can be directed to rotating log files instead of the ring buffer with 7config log –
command. Name and location of the log files depends on Eye hardware version:
 Eye for 802.11a/b/g: /nand/syslog
 Eye for 802.11a/b/g/n: /var/log/messages
In order to change logging to log files, issue the following command:
# 7config log set target persistent
To change logging back to ring buffer, use the following command:
# 7config log set target buffer
The following command shows the log level and log target information:
# 7config log show
7.4 Loupe log
Loupe is based on Tomcat so the log file is named catalina.out and is by default in directory
/<Loupe installation directory>/apache-tomcat-<version>/logs.
Tool to follow the most recent logging is
# 7loupe log
and for continuous monitoring:
# 7loupe log -f
