System Log Manager aggregates, sorts, and filters logs and system information into a centrally accessible location inside SharePoint Central Administration. SharePoint administrators can create custom log reports, combine events from different logs, and filter out extraneous information through an intuitive tree-based user interface, and reference their custom reports to quickly isolate problems with various system components.

This product is a SharePoint Feature, and is installed as a solution through the SharePoint Installer. Once installed, System Log Manager is accessible from the SharePoint Central Administration Site, under the Operations >> Logging and Reporting section. System Log Manager reads log information via the Microsoft Log Parser, giving you access to system logs from a single location, without affecting the logs themselves.
