Logging with License Server

The License Server has two logging facilities:

Logging to console and Log files.

Logging to console

The first is logging to the console. The amount of information that is written to the console can be set by the --verbosity parameter.

Log files

There are two different types of log files.


Daily log files

The license server writes all sessions to log files located in a "Logs" folder inside the cache folder. A new log file is created every day with file name of the form <YEAR>-<MONTH>-<DAY>.log (e.g. 2019-06-06.log). These files provide status information.
Note that generation of daily log files can be suppressed if the --logverbosity=0 option is used.
