> #### Getting started with log files for AppServer resources

> For each local AppServer broker that Fathom Management discovers, Fathom supports monitoring its two associated log file monitors. Fathom provides a log file resource monitor for the AppServer broker itself and another for its associated AppServer server. Each of these log file monitors has its own log file monitoring capabilities.

> The AppServer log file resource monitors are not enabled until the AppServer for which the resource monitors were created is started. When the log file monitor first starts monitoring either an AppServer broker or AppServers, it always starts at the end of the log file.

> ##### Naming conventions

> Fathom prepends the broker's name to the name of the broker and server log file monitors and viewers. For example, Fathom generates the following log file monitor and associated viewer names for an AppServer broker instance named asbroker50 and the container named vesta:

> - Broker-related log file names — Displays vesta.asbroker1BrokerLogFileMonitor and vesta.asbroker1 Broker Log File Contents.
> - AppServer-related log file names — Displays vesta.asbroker1ServerLogFileMonitor and vesta.asbroker1 Server Log File Contents.

> You cannot change these names.
