Configuring Service Logs
You can configure how Cisco Secure ACS generates and manages the service log
file. The options for configuring the service log file are listed below.
• Level of detail—You can set the service log file to contain one of three levels
of detail:
– None—No log file is generated.
– Low—Only start and stop actions are logged. This is the default setting.
– Full—All services actions are logged.
• Generate new file—You can control how often a new service log file is
created:
– Every Day—Cisco Secure ACS generates a new log file at 12:01 A.M.
local time every day.
– Every Week—Cisco Secure ACS generates a new log file at 12:01 A.M.
local time every Sunday.
– Every Month—Cisco Secure ACS generates a new log file at 12:01
A.M. on the first day of every month.
– When Size is Greater than x KB—Cisco Secure ACS generates a new
log file after the current service log file reaches the size specified, in
kilobytes, by x.
• Manage Directory—You can control how long service log files are kept:
– Keep only the last x files—Cisco Secure ACS retains up to the number
of files specified by x.
– Delete files older than x days—Cisco Secure ACS retains only those
service logs that are not older than the number of days specified by x.
