Logging Tab

The adapter uses log sinks to generate logs. The adapter defines traces with different roles and sends them to log sinks with corresponding roles.

You can use standard I/O to configure logging. You can also fine-tune when and where different types of information are sent by defining sinks and mapping each sink to one or more roles.

You can use the Logging tab to configure the logging options. The information is grouped in panels:
  • If you want to use the console window for logging, you have to select the Log To Standard I/O check box in the Log Level panel in this tab. You can send the information to multiple locations and choose to log one or more message types. For more information, see Log Level Panel.
  • If you want to use custom roles, you can use the All Log Sinks panel to add or remove log sinks and their roles. Then you can configure the logging options for selected sinks in the Configuration panel. See Supported Log Sinks and Roles and Log Sink Configuration Reference.

For trace messages that the adapter can log to a log sink, see Trace Messages.
