Diagnostics

The Diagnostics tab lets you download client logs uploaded by users.

To download logs from the Diagnostics tab, follow these steps:

  1. In the Log from column, find the timestamp of the log entry you’d like to download. You can sort the table by date by hovering your mouse cursor over the column's label and clicking the arrow button.
  2. Click the Download button (download).

The log archive is now saved in your download directory. You can view the logs in a text editor of your choice.

📘

To fetch the most recent logs, click refresh.

The retention period for logs uploaded by users is 15 days long. After the 15-day period has elapsed, user submitted log archive will no longer be accessible from Enterprise Center. Be sure to download and extract any necessary information within this timeframe.

Request client logs

This capability lets you send a request to the Guardicore Platform Agent running on the end user’s device to upload the latest log archive to Enterprise Center.

To request client logs, do the following:

  1. Click the log button (Request <<NEW_PRODUCT_NAME>> logs icon).
  2. In the confirmation dialog, click Yes, send request.
    On the end user’s device, Guardicore Platform Agent silently runs diagnostics and uploads the log archive to Enterprise Center.
  3. Allow a few minutes for the log archive to appear in the Diagnostics tab.
    Once the logs become available, you can download the archive from the Diagnostics tab. Latest logs appear on top of the list.

Set log level

The client details page lets you set the log level of the Guardicore Platform Agent running on the end user’s device. The log level determines the amount of detail captured in the client’s logs. You can change the log level to troubleshoot issues. Note that higher log verbosity may generate larger log files and increase storage usage. Remember to decrease the log level once troubleshooting is complete.

To change the log level, do the following:

  1. In client details, go to Log Level and click Info, Verbose, or Debug, depending on the currently active log level on the device.
  2. Select a different level from the list of available log levels.
  3. In the confirmation dialog, click Yes, change log level.

Allow a few minutes for the log level change to take effect. To learn more about Guardicore Platform Agent log levels, see Set log information level.
