## 15.4. Managing Logs

EKM generates logs on a daily basis. These log files are written to the Administration/Logs page for easy access, and record details about object transactions such as object name, time of operation, action performed, and the user who performed it. The title of the log includes the workspace it was generated in and the creation date.

You cannot delete the Audit Logs file server but you can change the location (server address) where the log files are written to by editing the properties for the `Audit Log` object on the Administration/Remote File Servers page.

EKM automatically synchronizes data on the Administration/Logs page at regular intervals. The frequency and time of synchronization can be configured only by an EKM system administrator in the `ekm.xml` configuration file. Alternatively data can be manually synchronized.

The log file is kept for 30 days and then automatically deleted. You can configure the duration of the log file in the ekm.xml configuration file. See Configuring EKM Server Settings for details.

When you click on a log file, the contents of the file will be displayed as text in the file list window. A sample audit log is shown in Figure 15.2: Sample Log Display.
