The Server Log captures events occurring on the server so that you can view and troubleshoot problems. For each event, the log includes the time, problem level, source (initiator), service (event type), engine, and message describing the event. For example, a BPR deployment causes a log event with info level, system source, engine service.
The server log may not update immediately after an event occurs. It is typically updated between 30 and 60 seconds after an event. If you are not seeing what you think should be there, you may just need to update your browser.

The console records the User/IP address when a purge or scheduling request occurs. An application server may have its own method. Here, for example, is what might be shown for Tomcat:
In addition, the interface for clearing the server log is available in Process Developer as a system service so that a developer can create and deploy a process to delete the log programmatically.
