Overview

In this article, you will get information about Logs archiving in Xopero ONE

Overview

Logs in Xopero ONE provide detailed records of backup activities, system operations, and events. The system uses lightweight, high-performance databases and stores all log entries from the moment the service is created. Log entries are never automatically deleted.

Archiving older logs improves the efficiency of the system. Xopero ONE provides a log archiving function. Archived logs remain fully accessible and can be easily searched.


Logs archiving

To configure log archiving, click the Settings icon at the bottom of the left-hand menu, then select Advanced > Logs archiving to expand the options:

  1. Archive logs every – specify the number of months after which the system should archive older log entries. By default, the system archives logs every 3 months and retains logs for the entire current month.

Configuration of Log Archiving

Logs tab

In Logs tab you can view all log entries— you can filter them by date, event subject, trigger, or subject name. The top bar displays the date from which logs are available (Date from).

To view logs from a different time period, click the magnifying glass icon on the right. In the advanced search window, use the DATE FROM and DATE TO filters to display logs from a specific time period.

To view all logs, click the X button next to Reset All or Date from— the system will then load all available logs.

Logs table

The logs table contains the following entries:

  1. LEVEL — indicates the status of an event. Xopero ONE defines four types of event status:

    1. Success — confirms the successful completion of a task.

    2. Infoprovides informational messages, such as changes in backup plans.

    3. Warning — indicates conditions that may conflict with intended actions or partial errors that could result in data loss within backup plans.

    4. Error — reports critical errors.

  2. LOG — name of the event.

  3. DATE — timestamp of when the event occurred.

  4. SUBJECT OF EVENT — target of the action or operation.

  5. NAME OF SUBJECT — name of the target.

  6. TRIGGER — element responsible for initiating an operation by sending the request. For example, if a backup plan is started manually by the administrator, the trigger is the administrator account. If the backup plan starts automatically based on the defined schedule, the trigger is the schedule.
