Logs for Paragon Insights Services

Paragon Insights (formerly HealthBot) runs various services (such as iAgent, jtimon, and Telegraf) to monitor the health of the network and individual devices. Each of these Paragon Insights services runs independently in a containerized environment and produces its own set of log messages that are categorized by severity level. You can configure different levels of logs to collect and download.

Table 1 lists the severity levels of the Paragon Insights services logs. The severity levels are listed in order from the highest severity (greatest effect on functionality) to the lowest. If you select a lower severity level, the logs for each of the higher severity levels will also be collected. The log level for all services is set to error by default.
