Setting Up a Log Level

By default, the log level is Error . You can change the log level to trace different messages.

1. Navigate to the TIBCO_HOME/bw/version_number/config/design/logback directory and open the logback.xml file.
2. Add the following node in the User loggers area to specify the log level for the plug-in.

   <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.mft.runtime">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
   </logger>

   The level tag defines the log level and the value is Error or Debug.

   Note: When the level is set to Debug, the input and output for the plug-in activities are also displayed in the Console view. See Log Levels for more details regarding each log level.
3. Optional: Add the following node in the User loggers area to specify the log level for an activity.

   <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.mft.runtime.ActivityNameActivity">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
   </logger>

   Note: For each activity , the ActivityName is:

   • Request Platform Server Transfer: PSTransfer
   • Wait for Platform Server Completion: PSTransferWaiter
   • Request Platform Server Transfer: ISTransfer
   • Wait for Platform Server Completion: ISTransferWaiter
   • Retrieve Audit Records: AuditMessage
   For example, to set the log level of the Request Platform Server Transfer activity to Debug, add the following node:

   <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.mft.runtime.PSTransferActivity">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
   </logger>

   Note: If you do not configure a specific log level for an activity, the activity applies the log levels that you configured for the plug-in.
4. Save the file.
