Troubleshooting

There are several ways to verify the successful operation of a function.

Resilient Action Status

  • When viewing an incident, use the Actions menu to view Action Status.

  • By default, pending and errors are displayed.

  • Modify the filter for actions to also show Completed actions.

  • Clicking on an action displays additional information on the progress made or what error occurred.

Resilient Scripting Log

  • A separate log file is available to review scripting errors.

  • This is useful when issues occur in the pre-processing or post-processing scripts.

  • The default location for this log file is: /var/log/resilient-scripting/resilient-scripting.log.

Resilient Logs

  • By default, Resilient logs are retained at /usr/share/co3/logs.

  • The client.log may contain additional information regarding the execution of functions.

Resilient-Circuits

  • The log is controlled in the .resilient/app.config file under the section [resilient] and the property logdir.

  • The default file name is app.log.

  • Each function will create progress information.

  • Failures will show up as errors and may contain python trace statements.
