Emulab FAQ: Testbed Operations: What logging does trafgen do?

> I run a static scheduled traffic generator on the testbed.
> Does the trafgen create any log files?

The only log will be in /var/emulab/logs. There is a trafgen.debug which would only have error messages associated with starting/stopping, and then there should be individual log files for each traffic generator named something like name-pid-eid.debug, where "name" is the name given in the NS file.

But these logfiles are only useful for debugging when things go wrong. They don't tell you much about actual traffic activity.
