Troubleshooting with Log Files

ePolicy Orchestrator includes many log files that you can use for troubleshooting. This document

describes 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 files

are 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.

NOTE: Paths that include the folder EPO400-TROUBLESHOOT point to the log file generated

for a failed operation. If the operation succeeds, the path does not include the

EPO400-TROUBLESHOOT folder.

DescriptionVariable

The default location of the agent data files is

<DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS>\ALL

USERS\APPLICATION DATA\MCAFEE\COMMON

FRAMEWORK

<DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS> is the location of the

DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS folder, which depends on

the operating system. If the operating system does not

use a DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS folder, the default

location is <AGENT INSTALLATION PATH>\DATA. To

determine the actual location of the agent data files,

view this registry key

HKEY-LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MCAFEE\TVD\SHARED

COMPONENTS\FRAMEWORK\DATA PATH. For more

information, see “Agent installation directory” in the

ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0 Product Guide or Help.

This is the currently logged on user’s Temp folder. To

access this folder, select Start | Run, then type %temp%

in the Open text box, and click OK.

The default location of the ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0 server

software is C:\PROGRAMFILES\MCAFEE\EPOLICY

ORCHESTRATOR

Log file size and BACKUP logs

When a log file reaches it maximum size, BACKUP is added to the file name extension and a

new 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 is

overwritten. 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 registry

key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NETWORK ASSOCIATES\EPOLICY ORCHESTRATOR,

then set the value data to the size desired. For example, 2=2MB.

Logging levels for debugging

This section provides information about setting logging levels for logs in general. For information

about 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, a

value ranging from 1 to 8.

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

levels.

• 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 server

issues.

9Using Log Files for Troubleshooting in ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0

When setting changes take effect

This section defines the interval between the moment that a log file setting is changed and the

moment the change takes effect.

• When a setting is changed using the registry, the interval is usually a minute or less. The

DWORD registry value that controls logging is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NETWORK

ASSOCIATES\EPOLICY ORCHESTRATOR\LOGLEVEL.

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

immediately.

• In some instances, when a change takes effect upon restarting the system, the user controls

the interval.
