Os componentes do servidor VMS XProtect geram entradas de registro para atividade, eventos e erros do sistema. Essas entradas de registro são coletadas e enviadas usando OpenTelemetry através do Protocolo OpenTelemetry (OTLP).

[en] The OpenTelemetry Collector forwards log data to a log processing service. By default, this is VictoriaLogs.   

[en] You can view system logs, audit logs, and rule logs in XProtect Management Client. From the Server Logs page, you can search, filter, and analyze log entries to investigate system activity, user actions, events, and errors.

[en] Some logging settings, including retention and collection behavior, are managed outside XProtect Management Client through the OpenTelemetry Collector and VictoriaLogs configuration files.

[en] OpenTelemetry is an open standard for collecting and transferring telemetry data, including logs. XProtect uses the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) to send log data between components in the logging infrastructure.  

[en] Using OTLP makes the logging infrastructure more flexible. In addition to the default setup with VictoriaLogs, you can connect the system to external logging or monitoring solutions that support OTLP.

Para obter uma visão geral de como o OpenTelemetry lida com registros como um sinal de telemetria, consulte Registro de OpenTelemetry na documentação do OpenTelemetry:https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/logs/.

Os registros do servidor exigem um serviço OpenTelemetry Collector em execução. Os componentes do servidor XProtect enviam registros para o coletor usando o Protocolo de OpenTelemetry (OTLP), e o coletor encaminha registros para VictoriaLogs ou para uma solução de registro externo.

[en] The OpenTelemetry Collector receives log data from XProtect server components and forwards it to the configured log processing service. By default, this is VictoriaLogs.

[en] VictoriaLogs serves as the log database engine for XProtect logs, handling log storage, querying, and analysis. It replaces the SQL Server-based log database used in earlier versions of XProtect. 

[en] You can access log data from the Server Logs page in XProtect Management Client.  

[en] By default, system logs and rule logs are retained for 7 days, and audit logs are retained for 30 days. Older log entries are automatically deleted when the retention period expires. You can modify the retention settings in the VictoriaLogs configuration files stored on the Management Server. For more information, see Set log retention policy.
