Specifies what level of information is saved to the OVERLAPS log file. This is Information<\/strong> by default but can be increased to Verbose<\/strong> when debugging is required or lowered to keep the size of the log file down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This can also be set to the absolute highest level of Debug<\/strong> when an extra level of detail is required, but as this outputs a lot of data it should only be enabled for short periods of time when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note that the log level is automatically increased to Verbose for one week after any new installation or upgrade to aid our Support Team in case of any installation issues that may arise. You can override this behaviour by deleting the \u201c.init\u201d file from \u201cC:\\ProgramData\\Int64 Software Ltd\\OVERLAPS\\<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The amount of time to keep data in the History log before it is deleted. You can customise this depending on your space limitations, amount of activity, and Data Protection laws. The valid values are anywhere from a single day up to 5 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To improve support for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) products, you can check individual event types in this section to have them automatically written to the server\u2019s Windows Event Log as well as OVERLAPS\u2019 own history log. These can then be more easily captured or monitored for security alerts and auditing purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Simply check the box for each event you want to have added to the Event Log or use the Select All\/None links to enable\/disable all events being sent to the Event Log.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Occasionally the need arises to see what a computer\u2019s password used to be, such as when System Restore is used and the password in AD is no longer correct. Enabling this option (by setting its value to more than 0) tells OVERLAPS that you would like it to store a copy of the passwords so that you can look back using the Password History tab and page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If enabled, OVERLAPS scans Active Directory each night for computers that have changed. It then retrieves their passwords, encrypts them, and writes them to its database for access later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Log Level Specifies what level of information is saved to the OVERLAPS log file.
