Introduction

The Log Database contains Internet activity data for use in web protection reporting tools. It is made up of the following databases:

  • A catalog database (by default, wslogdb70) holds reference data, including category and protocol names, users, and risk class assignments.
  • Standard logging partition databases (by default, wslogdb70_x) store log records forwarded to Log Server by Filtering Service.
  • A threats partition database (by default, wslogdb70_amt_1) holds information about advanced malware threats used to populate the Threats dashboard.

You may need to create or upgrade the Log Database manually if:

  • The following error appeared during installation:
    The installer encountered an error attempting to create the Log Database. 
    You can either exit the installer now, resolve the issue..., 
    and then run the installer again; or continue installation 
    and manually create the Log Database later....
  • The Log Database has become corrupted.
  • The Log Database was not upgraded properly when you upgraded your product.
