Enabling debugging on clients and sensors

The client and sensor logs typically provide enough information to follow the flow of operations under normal conditions. If things are not working as expected, the logging might not provide enough information to determine the actual root cause of the issue. If the client or sensor log information is insufficient, you can increase the log level by adding the -debug command-line option to the OpenText ScanCentral SAST command. Always specify the -debug option before you specify the command.

Examples:

scancentral ‑debug ‑url <controller_url> worker
scancentral ‑debug ‑url <controller_url> start

The next time the sensor is called, the log contains debug-level information.
