Siebel Logging

The logging for the Siebel Application Object Manager and the Siebel Communications Session Manager are written to separate files for each user in the form SComm_\<Siebel username\>.log. However, these logging mechanisms both written into the same set of files by default which makes it easier to monitor or troubleshoot issues related to session communications for a particular user session. The logs can normally be found at \<SiebelRoot\>/siebsrvr/log.

To configure Siebel logging, go to "Administration - Server Configuration", select the desired Siebel Server and choose the component "Application Object Manager", respectively the "Communications Session Manager".
