Cloud Backup:Where do I view the default installation path and logs of a Cloud Backup client?

Last Updated:Feb 28, 2024

This topic describes the default path in which a Cloud Backup client is installed on Linux or Windows and in which the logs of the Cloud Backup client are stored.

  • Cloud Backup client of the latest version

    • For a Cloud Backup client that is installed for the first time by using the Cloud Backup console

      • On Linux, you can view the logs in the /opt/alibabacloud/hbrclient/logs path.

      • On Windows, you can view the logs in the C:\Program Files\Aliyun Hybrid Backup Service Client\logs path.

        Important

        When you install a Cloud Backup client on Windows, the Windows system generates a setup log file in the %temp% path by default. The name of the file is similar to Setup Log 2022-08-15 #001.txt. If the client fails to be installed, you can re-obtain and enter the verification code to install the client. If the installation still fails, you can send this file to the technical support engineer to quickly resolve the issue.

      • Logs of a Cloud Backup client for database backup

        By default, the logs of a Cloud Backup client for database backup are stored in one of the following paths:

        • Oracle

          • Linux: /var/log/dbackup3/agent.log

          • Windows: C:\ProgramData\scutech\dbackup3\agent\log\dbackup3-agent.log

    • For a Cloud Backup client that is installed by using the Anti-ransomware feature in the Security Center console

      • On Linux, you can view the logs in the /usr/local/aegis/hbrclient/logs path.
