Node logs
The node logs store important diagnostic information. The information can help in troubleshooting and resolving issues.
The following table is a partial list available from the
Select log file to view drop-down list found in
the node Log files page. These are the most important node manager log files.
You can find information for other logs on this list in the following topics:
You can find the node manager logs in the following directory: <nm installation directory>\nm\logs
Example: C:\spotfire\nodemanager\<version>\nm\logs
| Log file | Description |
|---|---|
| jetty.log | The output from the jetty container that the node manager runs within (similar to catalina.log). |
| nm.log, nm.log.n (n is a number between 1 and the maximum number of logs that is configured to roll through.) | Information about all activity on the node. |
| nodemanager.txt | Generated only when you create a troubleshooting bundle. If you download another troubleshooting bundle at a later time, this log file is overwritten with newer data. |
| service-<guid>.log |
STDOUT from the service with the specific
GUID. This is a service instance log, and not an installation log.
|
| startup.log | Logging related to service startup--the
stdout/err for starting the NM service on
Linux. By default, set to
INFO.
|
| winsw.err.log | STDERR output captured by
the Windows service handler.
|
| winsw.out.log | STDOUT output captured by
the Windows service handler.

Note: If you have an issue
with the node manager, the
nm.log generally provides the needed details.
