Access Logging Levels; Default Access Logging Content - Red Hat DIRECTORY SERVER 8.1 Command Reference Manual

Chapter 5. Log File Reference

5.1.1. Access Logging Levels

Different levels of access logging generate different amounts of detail and record different kinds of
operations. The log level is set in the instance's
default level of logging is level 256, which logs access to an entry, but there are five different log levels
available:
• 0 = No access logging.
• 4 = Logging for internal access operations.
• 256 = Logging for access to an entry.
• 512 = Logging for access to an entry and referrals.
• 131072 = Precise timing of operation duration. This gives microsecond resolution for the Elapsed
Time item in the access log.
This levels are additive, so to enable several different kinds of logging, add the values of those levels
together. For example, to log internal access operations, entry access, and referrals, set the value of
nsslapd-accesslog-level to 516 (512+4).
