Definition of "Log File" |
In computing, a logfile (or simply log) is a file that records either the events which happen while an operating system or other software runs, or the personal messages between different users of a communication software. The act of keeping a logfile is called logging. In the simplest case, log messages are written to a single log file.Many operating systems, software frameworks and user programs include some form of logging subsystem. A general standard outlining a logging system is the Syslog standard (described in RFC 5424), which allows the filtering and recording of log messages to be performed by a separate dedicated subsystem, rather than placing the onus on each application to provide its own ad hoc logging system. |
