Wasabi can log most events related to bucket and source connectivity events using a standard Windows output console, such as DebugView. By default, Wasabi logs whenever the status of a directory is changed (replicated or nearline). You can configure Wasabi to trigger event notifications, log, and output log files in the Windows Event Viewer for the following events.
Replicate file
Reclaim space
Retrieve file
When any of these events occur, there are three log types that report the event:
Information Logs—Logs a successfully performed operation (detailed below).
Warning Logs—Logs an unsuccessful attempt to perform an operation (detailed below). Warning logs signify a temporary problem. Wasabi will attempt to perform the operation again until the operation either succeeds or reaches the threshold of scheduled attempts. If the threshold of scheduled attempts is reached, Wasabi will log an error.
Error Logs—Logs a failure to perform an operation (detailed below). Error logs signify a problem, which requires user intervention to resolve the error.
Unlike warning messages (that signify a temporary problem), error messages report that Wasabi has reached the threshold of scheduled attempts to accomplish the operation. Once the threshold is reached, you must restart the computer running Wasabi to reattempt the operation(s).
Wasabi recommends that you keep track of the number of log files generated by Wasabi to avoid running out of disk space.
