Yes, View is pre-configured to log to these local files. You should filter the log file for logs from the Audit category (grep for \ in the text log), these should cover most of what you need for user events. The xml logs are there for easy processing by the admin UI to display in the Events tab. Yes to both, they're exact duplicates of the logs >= INFO level. I am trying to build a auditing software for the above types of events and I need this answer to know whether the admin has to specially configure these logging options before they can use a software to read Audit Data? So this comes pre-configured ?my intention to ask was any of the above mentioned logs come pre-configured ( after installing VDI) or the admin needs to do special configuration at the view Manager to enable these logs? Session information to the existing log lines, there's no additional I need AuthZ/AuthN events, login failure etc.Īlso, is there any configuration option in VMware view where I can enable/disable the web.xml logs? The LoggingFilter mentioned in the ROOT\web.xml is used to attach

My interest is to build a auditing system for VDI. Does this file and the ".txt" file contain the same info? eg unique session details etc.?Ģ) There are some XML files too in the same folder of VDM. I have a few additional queries.ġ) Are the event viewer entries * exact duplicates *of these logs? or there is some additional information present. The INFO, ERROR, DEBUG etc are the broad categories in those logs. I just saw the \VMware\VDM\logs and they seem to caputure most of the events.
