You can use the Standalone Log Viewer to monitor logs when the J2EE Engine is not running properly, does not start up at all, or is not available on the system to be monitored.
The Standalone Log Viewer consists of a Log Viewer server and a Log Viewer client. The Standalone Log Viewer client and server script files, logviewer and remoteserver respectively, are located in the /usr/sap/<SID>/JC<Instance number>/j2ee/admin/logviewer-standalone directory.
For more information about the features of the Standalone Log Viewer, see Log Viewer User Interface .
