Configuring Log Files

obsutil log files include tool logs and SDK logs. You can add the following parameters to the .obsutilconfig file to enable the two logging functions.

Tool logging (records the log information generated during obsutil running): configure utilLogPath, utilLogBackups, utilLogLevel, and utilMaxLogSize.
SDK logging (records the log information generated when using obsutil to call OBS server-side APIs): configure sdkLogPath, sdkLogBackups, sdkLogLevel, and sdkMaxLogSize.

NOTE:

For details about the parameter description, see Configuration Parameters.
utilLogPath and sdkLogPath indicate the absolute paths of the log files, not the folders that store the log files.
If utilLogPath and sdkLogPath are not specified, tool logging and SDK logging are not enabled, and therefore no log file is generated during obsutil running.
Log files that are rolled over are named as follows: filename.log.number

NOTICE:

If multiple obsutil processes are running at the same time, log files may fail to be written concurrently or may be lost. In this case, add parameter -config when running commands to configure an independent configuration file for each process. Make sure that utilLogPath and sdkLogPath are set to different paths for each process.

Collecting Log Files

You can collect logs in either of the following methods:

Method 1: Use auxiliary commands by referring to Archiving Log Files.

Method 2: Locate the paths specified by utilLogPath and sdkLogPath in the configuration file, and then search for the log files in the corresponding paths in the local file system.
