Trusted Agent Logging
Extensive and detailed logging is available for Trusted Agent connectivity and operations, including activities that occur on CSM servers, Trusted Agent Hubs, and Trusted Agents.
Logging can be configured to go to the Windows event log, files, or to a Splunk server. For best results, log debug messages to a file or to Splunk rather than to the Windows Event Log because CSM generates many messages when debug logging is enabled.
The logging information collected is determined by the service/server with logging enabled.

The Trusted Agent Service logs messages through the Cherwell Application Server on the main CSM server, in addition to logging on its own server. Detailed logging is available on the Trusted Agent server when enabled. Warning and Above logging for the Trusted Agent Service is also available on the main CSM server if logging is enabled for the main Cherwell Application Server at the Warning and Above level or higher. Note: When logging is enabled on the Trusted Agent server, it can
take up to 60 seconds for messages to be seen and delivered to the
Cherwell Application
Server.
