Foglight Log Monitor views
Foglight Log Monitor allows you to monitor and configure your virtual environment. For more information about the Log Monitor dashboard, see Investigating log records.
The Log Monitor dashboard contains the following views:
File Selector view
The File Selector view allows you to select a log. You have an option to select a file log monitored by the File Log Monitor Agent, or a Windows Event Log, monitored by the Windows Event Log Monitor Agent.
