9 Monitoring a WebLogic Server Domain
9-4 Configuring and Managing WebLogic Server
If you start a Managed Server with Node Manager, Node Manager redirects the
server instance’s standard error to a file. In this case, you can view the Managed
Servers output using
DomainServerRemote Start OutputView Server error output.
! Server Logs—Each WebLogic Server instance writes all messages from its
subsystems and applications to a log file on its host machine. You can configure
logging behavior using the Server
LoggingServer tab. You can view a server
instance’s log file using the View server log link on any server tabs page.
! Domain Log—By default, each server instance in a domain forwards all
messages from its subsystems and applications to the Administration Server for
the domain. The Administration Server writes a subset of the messages to the
Domain Log. You can control whether or not a server instance sends its
messages to the Administration Server, and configure filters that control which
messages it sends using the Server
LoggingDomain tab. You can view the
Domain Log using the View domain log link on any domain tab page.
! Node Manager Logs—Node Manager writes startup and status messages to a
log file in the
NodeManagerLogs\NodeManagerInternal subdirectory. Node
Manager log files are named
NodeManagerInternal_timestamp,where
timestamp indicates the time at which Node Manager started.
! HTTP Logs—By default, each server instance maintains a log of HTTP
requests. You can disable HTTP logging, or configure logging behavior using
the Server
LoggingHTTP tab.
! JTA Logs—You can configure a server instance to maintain a JTA transaction
log using the Server
LoggingJTA tab.
! JDBC LogsYou can configure a server instance to maintain a JDBC log using
the Server
LoggingJDBC tab.
