We do not recommend customers enabling the logs unless required.

We have 5 different logging for a different purposes:

1. Enabling “lime” logs gives extra information for Access Control System (ACS) related activities.

2. Enabling “zinc” logs gives extra information for hardware-related activities.

3. Enabling “iodine” logs gives extra information for HL7-related activities.

4. Enabling “mercury” logs gives extra information for UI-related activities.

5. Enabling “slate” logs gives extra information for overall features.
   

6. Enabling “ruby” logs gives information on schedule task.
   

“Lime” logs need to be enabled from the Server machine:
