Local File
The Local File panel on the Local Device Logging page lets you enable messages logging to local log files.
On a Windows* managed device, the local files are zmd-messages.log,loader-messages.log, and services-messages.log. The zmd-messages.log file is located in \novell\zenworks\logs\localstore. The loader-messages.log and services-messages.log are located in \novell\zenworks\logs.
On a Linux* managed device, the local files loader-messages.log and services-messages.log are located in /var/opt/novell/log/zenworks.
