Help — Logging Level Settings tool

Field

Description

Logger Name

Identify a Java class or other logger category to be logged.

Use SmartPrompt to list all Java classes in com.pega.pegarules, or enter a category. Examples:

• Rule-Obj-Activity to review or update the logging level for all activity executions
• Rule-Obj-Activity.<activity name> to update the logging level for all activities with a given name in any Applies To class.
• com.pega.pegarules.engine.context.Agent to update the level for all agents

RuleSets and the PRPC class hierarchy are not relevant to logging. If you set logging events for an activity named Data-Party.Research and your system includes several activities of that name (in various RuleSets and versions), executions on the current node of any of these activities may produce logged events.

After you click  Get Current Level  , this field contains the current logging level for the class in the Logger Name field.

Select a level to be applied. Each level causes messages of that level and all lower levels except OFF to be included:

• ALL — Same as DEBUG
• DEBUG — Least severe
• WARN
• ALERT
• ERROR
• FATAL — Most severe
• OFF — No messages logged

Through the Log-Message method or Java oLog() calls, your code determines the severity of each message.

Click to retrieve and display the current logging level for the logger in the Logger Name field.

Click to apply the level in the Set Level field to the class in the Logger Name field.

Click to erase input on the form.

Click to remove all changes made with this tool by you or others. Logging for the current node reverts to the original settings in the prlogging.xml file.
