These commands modify the <logging> sub-section of the <default> section of aspera.conf (or you
can manually edit the file):
...
<default>
<file_system>...</file_system>
<logging>
<directory>logging_directory</directory>
<log_size>size_mb</log_size>
<level>log_level</level>
</logging>
</default>
...
2. To set user logging values, create logging classes (each with a specific logging configuration) and then assign
users to classes.
a) Create a logging class:
# asconfigurator -x
"set_log_setting_data;classes,class_name;directory,logging_directory;log_size,size
Object
classes
directory
log_size
level
b) Assign a user to the logging class:
# asconfigurator -x
"set_user_data;user_name,username;logging_class,class_name"
For example, the following commands create two logging classes, admin and home. The home logging class
uses the substitution string $(home) to log to the user's home directory, ensuring that the transfer users have access
to the log files for their transfers. They assign user root to the admin logging configuration, and users user1
and user2 to the home logging configuration.
# asconfigurator -x "set_log_setting_data;classes,admin;directory,/root/
logs;log_size,3;level,dbg"
# asconfigurator -x "set_log_setting_data;classes,home;directory,$(home)/
logs;log_size,20";level,dbg"
# asconfigurator -x "set_user_data;user_name,root;logging_class,admin"
