The Log Search UI is a purpose-built web application used to search HDP component logs. The UI is focussed on helping operators quickly access and search logs from a single location. Logs can be filtered by log level, time, component, and can be searched by keyword. Helpful tools such as histograms to show number of logs by level for a time period are available, as well as controls to help rewind and fast forward search sessions, contextual click to include/exclude terms in log viewing, and multi-tab displays for troubleshooting multi-component and host issues.

The Log Search UI is available from the Quick Links menu of the Log Search Service within Ambari Web.
