iIS Console Trace Window
iIS Console provides a trace window that displays information written to iIS
engine component log files. This information consists of output logged by engine
components when they encounter exceptions (error conditions), as well as
messages generated in process execution.
Messages and Message Filters
iIS engine componentsengine units, database services, and the governor
generate many types and levels of messages. These messages are generated in the
course of execution and can be used, in addition to exception output, for tracking
down problems.
To view these messages you must specifically request the type and level of
message you want to see, and for which engine component. The specified messages
are then written to the corresponding component log files (and to the iIS Console
Trace window).
You can specify message filters in a number of ways:
You can set an environment variable (FORTE_LOGGER_SETUP) on each node
that specifies the message filters for every iPlanet UDS partition (engine
component) started on that node.
You can set message filters for an individual iPlanet UDS partition (overriding
the environment variableor its default value) by specifying a log flag (-fl) on
the partition start-up command. (There is currently no way to do this in iIS
Console or Conductor Script.)
You can set message filters dynamically for a running partition (overriding the
specification in a logger flag or environment variable) by using the File >
Modify Log Flags command in the trace window of the iIS Console (or the
Conductor Script ModLogFlags command, page 292).
NOTE If an engine component has not come online, its log file cannot be
viewed from iIS Console. In that case you need to access the log file
directly on the components host node.
