This topic contains information about the configuration details, metadata, and log files for the Phoenix Backup Store.

Phoenix Backup Store log files

The Phoenix Backup Store log files contain details of backups that it performs. After every backup, a new log file is created in the Phoenix<YYYY/MM/DD>-<timestamp>.log format. If the Phoenix Backup Store does not function as expected, you can share these log files with the Druva Support team.

Note: Druva retains logs for the last 32 agent activities on each server. 

Logs on the Phoenix Backup Store

You can find the Phoenix Backup Store logs at the following location:

  • Ubuntu
    /var/log/Phoenix/ORACLE

Note: The log folder contains three folders: Backup, Restore, and Upload. Each of these folders contains folders with the name <backupset_id>. The <backupset_id> represents the unique identification number of the backup set configured on the server.

You can find the RMAN logs at the following location:

  • Ubuntu
    /var/log/Phoenix/ORACLE/backup/<backupset_id>

Hybrid Workloads agent configuration details

The Phoenix.cfg file contains the configuration details that Phoenix Backup Store requires to communicate with the Druva Cloud. 

Note: We recommend that you do not modify Phoenix.cfg except when required. In scenarios where you must modify these configuration files, contact the Druva Support team for assistance.
