Logging Configuration ​

Syncplify Server! features a flexible logging subsystem. This section allows you to configure detailed logging options based on your chosen log output.

Log Levels ​

There are five log detail levels. Each level includes all the information from the levels above it:

  • Error: Logs only errors. No user activity or session information is recorded.
  • Warning: Logs errors and warnings.
  • Information: (Recommended for normal operation) Logs errors, warnings, and user activity.
  • Debug: Adds troubleshooting details to the above.
  • Trace: Logs everything, producing very large output. Use only for development or when instructed by Syncplify support.

Log Output Options ​

You can choose to output logs to one of the following destinations:

  • stdout: Logs are written to the server's standard output (useful for containerized or cloud deployments).

  • file: Logs are saved to a file on disk. You can configure file rotation and retention settings.

  • syslog: Logs are sent to a syslog server, allowing integration with centralized logging and monitoring systems.
