User Logs and Where to find them
Copy-Paste Migration and Backup uses one global system log file location C:Users\(UserName)\Essentials\.metadata and is named .log.
.log - is the log file updated whenever Essentials an operation. this file has a size limit of 1mb, once this limit is reached a new .log is created and the old one is renamed to .bak_0.log. Only 10 of these files will exist at one time, after which the first will overwrite itself.
Migration and Backup .xml logs are stored in C:Users\(UserName)\Essentials\.metadata\appLog
.xml - this is a log of the activities after the migration has completed.
Viewing Logs in the Log Viewer
Migration and Backup logs can be opened right after a job completes, or any time from within the tool using one of the following methods:
The Logs option from the ribbon.
Selecting a job, right clicking, and selecting Show Logs.
Selecting the History option within the Log Viewer will provide you with a list of jobs for the last 5 days (you can change this filter in the history window to show more or less history).
Click on any logs and you will be able to see the Job results.
Selecting an individual component of the job will show you details about that component.
When using Hyper Mode for Migration, users can zip logs for the purpose of sharing the user logs.
In order to zip logs, navigate to a job you would like to zip the logs for, right click and select Zip Logs.
This will open an explorer window, where you can save the zip file.
