Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for managing logging data communications in a computer system. The computer system is configured with a proxy agent in communication with a client machine and storage, and an embedded agent in communication with the proxy agent and the client machine. All inbound communications from the client machine to the storage are maintained in a log local to the proxy agent. However, all outbound communications are split between two different communications paths, with one outbound path from the storage directly to the client machine and a second outbound path from the storage to the client machine via the proxy agent. One of the two outbound paths is selected based upon one or more of the characteristics of the associated communication.
