Your server logs. On your Mac.

Move from a server path to a readable workspace. Connect to your own SSH server and keep the files you need in view while you investigate.

A workflow you can return to.

01

Connect with the right account

Add the hostname, port and SSH user, then verify the server host key. Use an account with permission to read your logs. Saved connection profiles make the server easy to recognize next time.

02

Discover or choose a file

Browse to a project or choose Find server logs to look for readable server log files. Log lists belong to their connection, keeping sources from different servers separate.

03

Read remote output with local controls

Use the same panel search, pause, severity filters and reading order as local files. Reconnect catch-up is bounded by the available history, and your server still controls access.

// A CLOSER LOOK

Small controls. More room for the log.

Search, severity filters, reading order and pause stay with their panel. As you resize, secondary actions move into the options menu.

Before you connect.

Do I install a Lognivo agent on the server?

No Lognivo agent is required. The SSH workflow uses available Linux or Unix shell tools and the permissions of your SSH account.

Are jump hosts and interactive two-factor prompts supported?

Not in the current release. SSH-config aliases and interactive two-factor prompts are also outside the current connection workflow.

Keep the rest of your stack in view.

Make room for the whole story.
