Viewing Synchronization Logs
Go Up to Overview of Data Synchronization
ER/Studio Team Server provides various types of synchronization logs:
- In the ER/Studio Synchronization page:
- Click Latest Logs to open a plain text file with a synchronization log, which includes detailed information about the latest or current synchronization process. See ER/Studio Synchronization Status.
- ER Object rows provide links to logs about the synchronization of each ER object. See ER/Studio Synchronization Table.
- In the My Reports page, click View in a "Synchronize" report to open the report of that synchronization process.
Logs are located in the ER/Studio Team Server installation directory, inside etlvar\log\ . There, each synchronization process has its own directory, called log_<timestamp> . For example: etlvar\log\log_20081119210946\ .
To save disk space, ER/Studio Team Server creates .zip files from previous synchronization logs, and removes their directory. For example, during the next synchronization the etlvar\log\log_20081119210946\ directory becomes the etlvar\log\log_20081119210946.zip archive.
Because ER/Studio Team Server archives previous synchronization logs, when the synchronization process fails for an ER object, you can only see the error log if the synchronization of the ER object failed during the latest synchronization process. To access logs of previous synchronization processes, you cannot use the ER/Studio Team Server web interface. You must access the logs folder in the ER/Studio Team Server server instead. server file system.
