When configuring the event storage duration and selecting event types to be logged, you must take into account the amount of free disk space on processing servers.
Settings for event logging in the event log do not affect Syslog event logging settings.
To configure the logging of events in the event log:
- In the program web interface window, select the Settings → Logs and events → Events section.
- In the Mail traffic settings group:
- In the Log mail processing events drop-down list, select traffic processing events that you want to be logged in the event log. You can select one of the following options:
- All
- Delete message/Delete attachment/Reject action applied
- Nothing
By default, the All option is selected.
New settings are applied only to events logged in the event log after the settings are applied. New settings do not apply to events that were logged earlier.
Settings are applied on all cluster nodes.
- In the Maximum event log size (MB) field, enter the size of the event log that, when reached, will cause earlier records to be deleted.
Default value: 1024 MB. Possible values: integers from 100 to 2147483647.
- In the Logging period (days) field, enter the number of days during which the program must store network traffic processing events on the server.
Default value: 3 days. Possible values: integers from 1 to 8589934592.
- In the Log mail processing events drop-down list, select traffic processing events that you want to be logged in the event log. You can select one of the following options:
- In the System group of settings, in the Maximum number of events field, enter the number of Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway events that, if exceeded, will cause older records to be deleted.
The default value is 100,000. Possible values: integers from 1 to 2147483647.
Event logging in the event log is configured.
