Summary

How to modify log levels in my engine

Objective

The log levels we support are based on log4j. Each log entry includes a timestamp and message along with additional relevant information. The log level can be modified in order to display messages at another severity level. These levels include: TRACE, DEBUG, INFO (Default), WARN, ERROR, FATAL.

Steps

To modify the log level for an engine:

  1. On the navigation panel, select Set Up > Engines.

  2. Select the engine you want to modify the log level for.

  3. On the Engine Details panel, select the Logs tab. Then click the blue Log Config button.

  4. Change the default value of INFO for the following line in the file: log4j.logger.com.streamsets=INFO

Results

You now have the needed log level in your engine. INFO is recommended to be the default. To learn more about this topic, please see the documentation here .
