Product Version:
AhsayOBM / AhsayACB: 8.1 to 8.x
OS: All platforms

Where are the AhsayOBM / ACB backup client logs (e.g. Auto Update Agent (AUA) log, Continuous Backup log, Scheduler log, Backup log, Restore log) stored at?

Windows platforms

1. Backup and Restore Job Logs (YYYY-MM-DD-hh-mm-ss.log)

Backup and restore job logs contain information on all backup and restore jobs performed by the client application. Backup and restore logs can be found in the following directory paths:

%UserProfile%\.obm\log\${backupset_id}\Backup
%UserProfile%\.obm\log\${backupset_id}\Restore

or

%UserProfile%\.acb\log\${backupset_id}\Backup
%UserProfile%\.acb\log\${backupset_id}\Restore

For example:
C:\Users\Administrator\.obm\log\1449711651766\Backup

2. Scheduler Debug Logs (debug.log)

3. System Log (YYYY-MM-DD.log)

System logs contain information on the daily activities performed by the client application, for example login audit, start / end of backup and restore job, start/end of utility job (e.g. data integrity check, space freeing up), and start / end of report job (e.g. saving statistic to AhsayCBS). The system log can be found in the following directory path:
