Monitoring application logs

Messages from the various Enterprise Vault services and tasks go into the event logs on their respective computers. You need to check each of these logs for error messages and take appropriate action as necessary.

When using the Event Viewer, you can filter the messages using the options on the View menu. All the messages have a category of Enterprise Vault.

Table: Enterprise Vault event logs shows the event logs that Enterprise Vault uses.
