As we all know that the Default SharePoint log files are saved at

C:\Program files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS

The Sharepoint LOGS folder contains

log files (.log),

data files (.txt), and

usage files (.usage)

This post explores how to view and modify the Default SharePoint Log Location -

Step 1) Open SharePoint Central Administration for the SharePoint farm, browse to Monitoring in the Central Administration

As we all know there are two ways to get a GUID of a Site or Site Collection

1) Using Powershell

2) Using Sharepoint Central Admin

Writing this post as I had a requirement in office where I had to add some users to a Sharepoint group using a console application.

This post explores the first method of obtaining the GUID of a site using powershell script –

Below is the Powershell Script

Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Sharepoint.Powershell

Write-Host "****** Welcome to Powershell script that gives GUID of a Sharepoint Site ******"

Write-Host ""

$UserEntered = Read-Host -Prompt 'Enter the Sharepoint site with port to get GUID (Press Enter after Pasting) '

$site = Get-SPSite $UserEntered

$siteguid = $site.id

echo $siteguid

Write-Host ""

$User = Read-Host -Prompt 'Press Enter Button to Exit'
