Interactions between licensed clients and the Silk Meter server are logged to the smServerLog.log file in the cfg/silkmeter/logs directory.
When this logfile reaches a configurable size (4MB by default), it is archived with the name smServerLog_<datetime>_<timestamp>.log in the same directory; a new, empty logfile is then created. The timestamp used for the new logfile reflects the time at which the file is saved, e.g.: smServerLog_2016_03_30_12_51_27_1032349743.log
The maximum size (kb) of the logfile can be changed using the registry setting MaxLogFileSize (of type REG_SZ) under the HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SgMeManager\Parameters registry key.
Currently, the following actions are logged: Init, Start, Check, Stop, Fail, New Period, Checkout Mobile, Checkin Mobile, Add Product, Add Product Error and Remove.
