Viewing and Downloading Error Logs

FlexusRDS log management allows you to view database-level logs, including error logs and slow SQL query logs.

Error logs help you analyze problems with databases. You can download error logs for further analysis.

    • The system automatically loads the downloading preparation tasks. The loading duration is determined by the log file size and network environment.
      • When the log is being prepared for download, the log status is Preparing.
      • When the log is ready for download, the log status is Preparation completed.
      • If the preparation for download fails, the log status is Abnormal.

      Logs in the Preparing or Abnormal status cannot be downloaded.

    • If the size of a log to be downloaded is greater than 40 MB, you need to use OBS Browser+ to download it. For details, see Method 1: Using OBS Browser+.
