Procedure

  1. Open Planning Analytics Administration.
  2. Click the database for which you want to set logging levels.
  3. Click the Logging tab.
    Logging tab of Planning Analytics Administration showing available loggers
  4. To set the level for a logger, click the Level menu and select the desired logging level.

    The available loggers are listed alphabetically and hierarchically. If you set a logging level for a parent logger before setting a logging level for any child loggers, all child loggers initially inherit the same level, but can be modified independent of the parent. If you set a logging level for a child prior to setting a logging level for a parent logger, the child logging level remains unchanged when you set the parent level.

    For example, the TM1 logger is the parent of all other available loggers. Similarly, the TM1.Event logger is the parent of the TM1.Event.Process and TM1.Event.Process loggers.

  5. Click Apply after you've set all desired logging levels.
