Using the dynamic logging feature

This feature is helpful for resolving Launcher issues without having to:

  • bring the Launcher down to enable the logging feature
  • reconfigure the Launcher with different logging settings
  • restart the Launcher

The following procedure assumes you have connected to a Launcher from the Management Console and have selected the Compound System that appears in the navigation pane.

See "Multiple Processes" for additional information when using the multiple-processes feature.

To use the dynamic logging feature

  1. Start the Launcher.
    • When the Launcher starts, it will use the logging category settings configured in the INI (dtx.ini) file under each logging entry section (Launcher, Resource Manager, and Connection Manager) to determine which severity levels and components to debug.
    • The following logging categories in the INI file will be configured to 0 to turn that logging category off or 1 to turn that logging category on:
      • LogTrace
      • LogDebug
      • LogInfo
      • LogWarning
      • LogError
      • LogFatal
  2. Enable the logging feature in the Management Console.
