Avtar, retrieving client logs?

Hello, I need to be able to extract the client log for a few specifics clients, more specifically the "completed with exception" one.

Some SQL backups exit with code "30005" because they have a simple recovery model, and I need to be able to pull the error with avtar, but the errors never show up in the logs extracted with the following command:

#> avtar --id=MCUser --ap=MCUpasswd --path="/windows/client1.local" --showlog

What am I missing ? Does the avtar "--showlog" switch never display errors ?

    Unfortunately only the avtar logs are available using --showlog. The exceptions happened at the plug-in level so they would be logged in the avsql log. If the avsql logs are no longer on the client, I don't know of a way to recover them.

    Hey JS,

    Due to --showlog is a command options for the avtar command, so it is only available for avtar logs.

    For SQL backup log, you need to chech avsql logs.

    Hope this helps.

    Oh, that's a shame, I'll need to share the log folders, and parse the logs in order to send the error to the admins. Oh well !

    Thank you Ian and Leo.
