How to use FTP or SCP to retrieve the log files
If you are an Administrator or Device User, you can use FTP or SCP to retrieve a tab-delineated event
log file (event.txt) or data log file (data.txt) that you can import into a spreadsheet
application.
The file reports all of the events recorded since the log was last deleted.
The file includes information that the event log does not display.
The version of the file format (first field)
The date and time the file was retrieved
–The Name, Contact, Location values, and IP address of the cooling unit
The unique Event Code for each recorded event (event log only)
If you are using the encryption-based security protocols for your system, use Secure CoPy (SCP) to
retrieve the log file. (You should have FTP disabled.)
If you are using unencrypted authentication methods for the security of your system, use FTP to retrieve
the log file.
To use SCP to retrieve the file. To use SCP to retrieve the event.txt file, use the following
command:
scp username@hostname_or_ip_address:event.txt./event.txt
To use SCP to retrieve the data.txt file, use the following command:
scp username@hostname_or_ip_address:data.txt./data.txt
Note: The cooling unit uses a four-digit year for log entries. You may
need to select a four-digit date format in your spreadsheet application
to display all four digits of the year.
See the Security Handbook, available on the Utility CD and on the APC Web
site (www.apc.com) for information on the available protocols and methods
for setting up the type of security appropriate for your needs.
