Error log: Contains detailed messages of errors and events the directory experiences during normal operations. This log type is enabled by default.
Warning
If the Directory Server fails to write to the errors log, the server sends an error message to the Syslog service and exits. This log type is enabled by default.
Audit log: Records changes made to each database as well as to server configuration. This log is not enabled by default.
Audit fail log: Records failed audit events. This log is not enabled by default.
