You can activate the debug level for user audit log messages to include the log messages in the ui_runtime.log file.

Prerequisites

Verify that you have the root user credentials to log in to the VMware Aria Operations for Logs virtual appliance.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the location /usr/lib/loginsight/application/etc/ and open the configuration file loginsight-config-base.xml in any text editor.
  2. Add a new logger for LoginActionBean with the DEBUG login level:
    <loggers>
        <logger name="com.vmware.loginsight.web" level="${uiLevel}" additivity="false">
          <appenderRef ref="UI_RUNTIME_FILE"/>
    </loggers>
  3. Save and close the loginsight-config-base.xml file.
  4. Run the service loginsight restart command to apply your changes.
    Tip:

    You can also activate the debug level for user audit logs without restarting the VMware Aria Operations for Logs service. For more information, see Log Files for VMware Aria Operations for Logs.
