=== Using the command line to view log files
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the command line to view logs in different ways, for example:
|
||||
|
||||
* Using the *journalctl* command
|
||||
* Using the commands for viewing, for example *cat*, *more*, *less*, *tail*, or *head*
|
||||
* Combine the commands for viewing with the *grep* command
|
||||
* Using a text editor, for example, `nano` or `vim`
|
||||

==== Using journalctl to view system information.
|
||||
|
||||
* To view all collected logs with no filter:
|
||||
----
|
||||
$ journalctl
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
* To view a specific log file, enter the *journalctl* command with a log filepath. The example command returns all logs of the kernel device node `/dev/sda`:
|
||||
----
|
||||
$ journalctl /dev/sda
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
* To view the boot logs, run the following command:
|
||||
----
|
||||
$ journalctl -k -b -1
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
* For more information on *journalctl*, read the man page:
|
||||
----
|
||||
$ man journalctl
|
||||
----
|
||||

|
||||
==== Using the command line to open log files in a text editor
|
||||
|
||||
All log files are in plain text. To open a log file in a text editor, enter the following command:
|
||||
----
|
||||
$ nano <logfilename>
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
If the root permissions are required:
|
||||
----
|
||||
$ sudo nano <logfilename>
|
||||
----
