TM1 server Message log

Displays the TM1 server records status messages on the activity of the server in a log file. These messages contain details on activity such as executed processes, chores, loaded cubes and dimensions, and synchronized replication. See the "System and Performance Monitoring" chapter of the IBM Cognos TM1 Operation Guide for details on this log and how to use it.

Procedure

  1. To get a log of messages, right-click the server and select Message log.
  2. Click the Start date; Start time; End Date; End time to define the time period over which transactions will be logged. If you set just Start time and End time, the time period defaults to all day.
  3. You can also use the Thread, Level, or Logger filter to identify specific values in each of these columns that you want to use as a filter.
  4. To generate a txt file of the log, click Export and select the resulting window's contents. Then you can paste that information into a blank text file.
  5. You can also use View Process log to see the process log.
  6. When the parameters are set, click OK to initiate logging. Logging continues until you log out of the session ends or the end time period is met.
