Log configuration
In this article, we are recommending App Service logs settings, but you can always (depending on your use case) customize the settings to fit your environment.
App Service Logs (Recommended settings)
To retain or archive the log files, we recommend configuring the following settings under Monitoring -> App Service logs of your SCEPman instance:
- 1.Activate Application logging (Filesystem) and set the Level to Verbose: this will allow you to see the Application logs under Log steam
- 2.Activate Application logging (Blob) and set the Level to Verbose, then Storage settings to a Storage account (you can use the same Storage account you already created for your SCEPman artifacts), otherwise you can create a new Storage account and save the Application logging in a Blog Container. This is very helpful to save the application logging for long term. We recommend 30 days for Retention Period.
- 3.Activate Web server logging by selecting Storage and the Storage account you already have created. This will save the logs of the web server where SCEPman is running and not of the SCEPman application itself. This could be helpful in some special troubleshooting cases. We recommend 30 days for Retention Period.
- 4.Turn on Detailed error messages and Failed request tracing.
- 5.Do not forget to Save.
Your App Service logs settings should be (in our example) like:
Diagnostic settings (Optional settings)
To retain your diagnostic data, you can configure the streaming export of platform logs and metrics.
You can choose different destinations as a location.
We recommend storing your data in Log Analytics
Log Analytics workspace
- 1.Create a Log Analytics workspace (Microsoft Guide Create a Log Analytics workspace) You can also use an existing one.
- 2.Go to your App Service and click on Diagnostic settings
- 3.In the filed Diagnostic setting name you need to put in a name to identify your configuration
- 4.Please select Send to Log Analytics under the Destination details and select your Subscription and Log Analytics workspace
- 5.The last step is to select the needed data. We recommend all Categories.
- 6.Finally, click on the Save button
Archive to storage account (optional)
If you have created a storage account to store your SCEPman artifacts, or for Application logging, you can use the same storage account and skip the first step.
- 1.
- 2.Go to your App Service and click on Diagnostic settings (preview)
- 3.In the filed Diagnostic setting name you need to put in a name to identify your configuration
- 4.Please select Archive to a storage account under the Destination details and select your Subscription and Storage account
- 5.After you selected the storage account you can see the files Retention (days) at the Category details
- 6.Select the needed data and type in your retention time in days. We recommend all Categories and a retention time of 30 days.
- 7.Finally, click on the Save button.
