About logs

The application adds a message to the log when an event occurs. The type of event that triggers a message is based on the level of severity setting. Logs may include event data from the servers. You view the log information to troubleshoot security problems in the network. You delete the events that are no longer needed.

You can use Notepad.exe or another text editor to read a log file.

The logs are found in All Users\%appdata%\Symantec.CSM\Logs\.
