In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
Troubleshooting
When errors occure, these are good places to check:
- freezer-api log: $HOME/log/freezer-api.log
-
/var/log/apache2/freezer-api.log
- freezer-agent log: $HOME/.freezer/freezer.log
- freezer-scheduler log:/var/log/freezer/scheduler.log
