Answer

Log File Name Location Description Log Rotation
SCWDebug.log <SC_Install_Dir>\SnapCenter Plug-in for Microsoft Windows\ SnapCenter Plug-in for Microsoft Windows Service log file. The roll-over is triggered when the log file size exceeds 20MB. Rotated logs are retained as SCWDebug.<Date>.<N>.log files up to the number specified as 20.
SCW_<Job_ID>.log <SC_Install_Dir>\SnapCenter Plug-in for Microsoft Windows\job_logs\ SnapCenter Plug-in for Microsoft Windows Service job logs. Basically the same as SCWDebug.log but contains only information related to an individual job. When total job log files size  exceeds 500MB, the oldest files are deleted.
navp00.log <SC_Install_Dir>\SnapCenter Plug-in for Microsoft Windows\ VSS Hardware Provider log file. The roll-over is triggered when the log file size exceeds 20MB. Rotated logs are retained as navp<N>.log files up to the number specified as 10.
VirtualizationAPI.log <SC_Install_Dir>\SnapCenter Plug-in for Microsoft Windows\ VMware API log file. The roll-over is triggered when the log file size exceeds 20MB. Rotated logs are retained as VirtualizationAPI<N>.log files up to the number specified as 100.
