EventSentry writes debug information to log files to help troubleshoot configuration and software issues. To prevent disk space issues, all log files are capped at a maximum size and will automatically rotate (e.g., _1.log becomes _2.log) once the limit is reached.
Log File Locations:
Modern Versions (Current): %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\eventsentry\logs\
The following log files are created by each component:
| Component | File Name Pattern | Max File Size | Max Total Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agent Service | eventsentry_svc_*.log | 30 MB | 60 MB |
| Collector Service | es_collector_svc_*.log | 150 MB | 300 MB |
| Heartbeat Monitor | eventsentry_hb_svc_*.log | 100 MB | 200 MB |
| Network Service | es_network_svc_*.log | 100 MB | 200 MB |
| Sync Service | es_sync_svc_*.log | 150 MB | 300 MB |
| Management App (GUI) | C:\Program Files\EventSentry\eventsentry_gui_*.log | 16 MB | 32 MB |
Important Notes
• Enable Logging: Log data is only generated when the Debug Logging Level is set to something other than None in the Service Control options. Check https://www.eventsentry.com/kb/60 for more information.
• Applying Changes: Save the configuration after changing the debug level, restarting the service is recommended.
