Setting Up Log Levels

In the logback.xml file, you can configure a different log level for the plug-in and plug-in activities to trace different messages.

If you do not configure any log levels, the plug-in uses the default log level of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™. The default log level is Error.

Procedure
1. Navigate to the <BW_HOME>\bw\<version_number>\config\design\logback directory and open the logback.xml file.
2. Add the following node in the BusinessWorks Palette and Activity loggers area to specify a log level for the plug-in:

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

   The value of the level element can be Error, Info, or Debug.

   Note: If you set the log level to Debug, the input and output for the plug-in activities are also displayed in the Console view. For more details about each log level, see Log Levels.
3. Optional: Add different nodes in the BusinessWorks Palette and Activity loggers area to specify different log levels for the activities and shared resources.
   • For the Pulsar Connection shared resource, add the following node:

     <logger name="com.tibco.bw.sharedresource.pulsar.runtime">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
     </logger>

   • For the PulsarProducer activity, add the following node:

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

   • For the PulsarConsumer activity, add the following node:

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

   Note: The activities that are not configured with specific log levels use the log level configured for the plug-in.

4. Save the file.
