The Backup Exec Migrator can create log files that log all migration activity. The log files reside on both the Enterprise Vault server and the Backup Exec media server. Backup Exec Migrator log files can help you troubleshoot migration issues.
Before you can view the log files, you must enable Backup Exec Migrator logging on the Enterprise Vault server and on the Backup Exec media server. To enable Backup Exec Migrator logs on the Enterprise Vault server, edit the Windows registry.
For information on enabling Backup Exec Migrator logging on the Enterprise Vault server, see the following:

To enable Backup Exec Migrator logging on the media server See Using the Backup Exec Debug Monitor for troubleshooting.
After you enable logging on the Enterprise Vault server and on the Backup Exec media server, the following types of log files are created:
Each time the Backup Exec Migrator is started, separate VxBSA log files are created. As a result, each new log file’s sequential number increments by one.
For example, <computer_name>vxbsa00.log, <computer_name>vxbsa01.log.
Similarly, a new log file is created each time the Partition Recovery Utility is started. As a result, each new Partition Recovery Utility log file’s sequential number increments by one.
For example, partitionrecovery00.log, partitionrecovery01.log
Backup Exec media server log file numbers also increment by one as multiple log files are created.
For example, <computer_name>-bengine00.log, <computer_name>-bengine01.log
You can find the log files in the following locations.
