Is it possible to view the entire logfile

Post by martinlourduswamy »

Hi,
Just a quick question to support. I know i can view/search the logfiles by "Program Name" and get entries. Is it possible to view the entire log from a server with logname?

Please let me know,

Thanks,
Regards,

This is not possible as each line on the file is sent to the server as an independent record (log entry)
