Specifying Amount and Type of Information to Include in the Server Log

You can specify logging levels for individual products and specific facilities within a product. Because facilities inherit logging levels from the parent product and, in turn, products inherit logging levels from the Default node, you can set the logging level of the Default node to be the default logging level that you want to use for most of the products and facilities. Then, you can change the logging levels for the particular products or facilities for which you want to generate more or less server log information.

By default, all products inherit the logging level of the Default node. Inherited values are shown in gray text. When you explicitly change the logging level for a product or facility, that level overrides the Default node level. Integration Server Administrator displays explicitly set logging levels in bold text.

The Server Logger Configuration area lists Integration Server and products that are installed on Integration Server, and the facilities for each of these. To see the facilities and their current logging levels, expand the display by clicking

To change the level for...	Take this action...
The Default node	Click the level to use in the Logging Level list for the Default node. Integration Server Administrator resets all products and facilities that inherit from the Default node to the new level.
A particular product	Click the level to use in the Logging Level list for the product node. Integration Server Administrator resets all facilities that inherit their values from the product to the new level. If you change a level for a particular product and later want the product to inherit the logging level from the default node again, reset the product logging level to be the logging level of the default node.
A particular facility	Click the level to use in the Logging Level list for the facility. If you change a level for a facility and later want the facility to inherit the logging level from the product again, reset the facility logging level to be the logging level of the product.
