Access Logging

Access logs record HTTP and HTTPS requests made to load balancers, and these logs are stored in an OBS bucket. Only public network classic load balancers support access logging.

Before configuring access logging, ensure that you have created a load balancer and OBS bucket. For details, see "Creating a Bucket" in the Object Storage Service User Guide.

1. Grant read and write permissions to the ELB administrator.
   1. Log in to the management console. On the Object Storage Service page, click the name of the destination bucket.
   2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Permissions.
   3. On the displayed page, click Bucket ACLs.
   4. Click Add and set the parameters.
