Log Files
Log files provide important information about the operation of the license server and the Charon-SSP software. In case of problems, this is the first place to check.
License Server Log File
Log File Location
The license server log file is stored under /opt/license-server/license_log
The log file is called license.log. At every license server start, a new version of the log file is created and the previous file is rotated to license.log.1. Other existing versions are rotated accordingly.

Charon-SSP Emulator Log Files
Log File Location
The default emulator log file location is /opt/charon-agent/ssp-agent/ssp/<architecture/<vm-name>/.
- <architecture> can be sun-4m, sun-4u, or sun-4v.
- <vm-name> is the name of the emulated SPARC system.
The log file is called <vm-name>.log. At every emulator start, a new version of the log file is created and the previous file is rotated to <vm-name>.log.1. Other existing versions are rotated accordingly. The number of retained files is determined by the log configuration of the emulated SPARC system.
The log file path can be changed by the user to a non-default value.

Connection to license server lost temporarily and then restored:
(License loss detected) 2020-01-13 22:57:53 ERROR License Failed to connect with license server! 2020-01-13 22:57:53 WARN License Charon will be shutdown within 24 hours!

The output shows a 24 hour grace-period. If a valid license has not become available by then, the emulator will be stopped.
License Server version mismatch:
2020-01-16 11:24:38 WARN License Failed to get data from license server!
In the initial versions of the software, each license server version requires a specific Charon-SSP VPC version. It is planned to introduce an automatic check for compatible protocols and thus more flexibility in a later version.
