View logs for a registered collector

In this milestone, you view internal logs for a registered collector. Fleet Management automatically creates and assigns self_monitoring_logs_* configuration pipelines based on the collector’s operating system or platform.

To view logs for a registered collector from the collector details drawer, complete the following steps:

1. If you closed the collector details drawer, open a collector from the Inventory tab first.

2. Switch to the Logs tab.

3. Use the search box to look for specific log lines or error messages.

4. Use Explore Logs to investigate the collector logs in Explore Logs.

Error-level logs can help you diagnose remote configuration failures, cache read or load failures, and cache write failures. Debug-level logs can help you identify when the collector requests, skips, or reloads remote configuration.

After you finish this milestone, you have completed the journey.
