What Kind of Logs and Files Can LTS Collect?

Logs That Can Be Collected by LTS:

  • Host logs. ICAgent should be installed on the target hosts for log collection.
  • Cloud service logs. To collect logs from cloud services, such as Elastic Load Balance (ELB) or Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), enable log reporting to LTS in the cloud services.
  • Logs reported by APIs.

Files That Can Be Collected by LTS:

If the collection path is set to a directory, for example, /var/logs/, only .log, .trace, and .out files in the directory are collected. If the collection path is set to the name of a file (only text files are supported), the specified file is collected. Note that LTS only collects logs generated in the last 7 days.
