Logging process

Figure 1 depicts the relationships among the steps in the logging process. The top part of the figure represents the code of a Verify Identity Access server. The code contains probe points where events of specific types can be generated. Generated events are submitted to the server event pool for possible recording through a point of capture (event sink). The event pool defines the events category.

At run time, you can subscribe a log agent at any point in the event pool hierarchy. You can selectively record events that are generated at the probe points for the program. The middle part of the figure depicts subscription.

For example, you can subscribe to a remote client for capturing events. This client forwards the selected events to a remote authorization server.

The lower part of the figure depicts this remote server. Relayed events are placed in the event pool at the remote probe points for the authorization server.
