How can I use the JLog gui remotely?

Problem

Solution

The best way to view the logs of an ACS_INSTANCE running on a remote host is to start the jlog locally on your own machine and connect it to the remote Manager.

This requires that the following variables are locally set to the right values:

   ACS_INSTANCE
   MANAGER_REFERENCE

For example, if ACS is running on the host te1.hq.eso.org under ACS_INSTANCE=1 and you want to browse the logs from te22.hq.eso.org , on this last host type the following commmands:

  > export  ACS_INSTANCE=1
  > export  MANAGER_REFERENCE=corbaloc::te1.hq.eso.org:3100/Manager
  > jlog

The advantage is that in this way only the logs are traveling over the network and not the Java graphical display. This should give much better performance and disturb in a minimal way the remote applications.
