Log Event Components

• •Service type, category, or user. The Logs tab categorizes events by domain category, service type, or user. If you view application service logs, the Logs tab displays the application service names. When you view domain logs, the Logs tab displays the domain categories in the log. When you view user activity logs, the Logs tab displays the users in the log.
• •Message or activity. Message or activity text for the log event. Use the message text to get more information about the log events for domain and application services. Use the activity text to get more information about log events for user activity. Some log events contain embedded log event in the message texts. For example, the following log events contains an embedded log event:
Client application [PmDTM], connection [59]: recv failed.
In this log event, the following log event is the embedded log event:
[PmDTM], connection [59]: recv failed.
When the Log Manager displays the log event, the Log Manager displays the severity level for the embedded log event.
• •Security domain. When you view user activity logs, the Logs tab displays the security domain for each user.
• •Message or activity code. Log event code. If the message type is error or fatal, click on the message code to open the Informatica Knowledge Base search for the message. You must configure the support portal credentials in the user account to do the search.
• •Process. The process identification number for the Windows or UNIX service process that generated the log event. You can use the process identification number to identify log events from a process when an application service runs multiple processes on the same node.
• •Node. Name of the node running the process that generated the log event.
• •Thread. Identification number or name of a thread started by a service process.
• •Time stamp. Date and time the log event occurred.
• •Severity. The severity level for the log event. When you view log events, you can configure the Logs tab to display log events for a specific severity level.
