# Logging and Tracing Settings


The Administrative Template settings for Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM) enable you to centrally configure logging and tracing options for AGPM Servers and clients to which a Group Policy object (GPO) with these settings is applied.

The following setting is available under Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\AGPM in the **Group Policy Object Editor** when editing a GPO in the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). If this path is not visible, right-click **Administrative Templates**, and add the agpm.admx or agpm.adm template.

**Trace file locations**:

-   Client: %LocalAppData%\\Microsoft\\AGPM\\agpm.log

-   Server: %CommonAppData%\\Microsoft\\AGPM\\agpmserv.log
