9.11 Modifying Logging Options

iPrint Appliance system events are logged in the /var directory. Since the /var directory can fill up with log files and cause the boot partition to grow, it is recommended that /var be located either on a separate hard disk on the appliance, or on a remote NFS directory.

To move the /var directory to a dedicated disk or to a remote NFS directory:

  1. Log in to iPrint Appliance at https://server_url:9443, then click Appliance Configuration.

  2. Click Logging.

  3. Specify the hard disk information for the /var directory:

    • Select disk: Select the hard disk where you want to place /var.

    • File system type: Specify the type of file system.

  4. Click OK.
