Use

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.

Features
  • You can select the Standalone Log Viewer as a default program to open log files directly from the file system.
  • You can view log files in the Standalone Log Viewer using drag and drop.
  • You can install the Log Viewer server as a service on Microsoft Windows and as a daemon on UNIX.
