IndicationLog Level
Highest severity level, indicating a serious failure that usually
prevents normal program execution. You may need to shut down or
restart part of your cluster to correct the problem.
severe
The operation indicated in the error message has failed. The server
or locator should continue to run.
error
Potential problem with the system. In general, warning messages
describe events that are of interest to end users or system managers.
warning
Informational messages for end users and system administrators.info
Default severity level for logging messages. This log level provides
static conguration messages that you can use to debug conguration
problems.
cong
Tracing information that is generally of interest only to application
developers. This logging level may generate lots of "noise" that might
ne
not indicate a problem in your application. It creates very verbose
logs that may require signicantly more disk space than logs that
record only higher severity levels. Do not use this log setting unless
you are asked to do so by VMware Support.
Reserved for internal use. These log levels produce a large amount
of data and consume large amounts of disk space and system
ner, nest, and all
resources. Do not use these settings unless you are asked to do so by
VMware Support.
Using java.util.logging.Logger for Application Log Messages
Applications that use the SQLFire JDBC peer driver can log messages through the java.util.Logger logging API.
You can obtain a handle to the java.util.Logger logger object by entering com.vmware.sqlfire after the
application connects to the SQLFire cluster with the peer driver.
For example:
import java.util.logging.Logger;
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("com.vmware.sqlfire");
logger.info("Connected to a SQLFire system");
Using Trace Flags for Advanced Debugging
SQLFire provides debug trace ags to record additional information about SQLFire features in the log le.
SQLFire provides these trace ags that you can use with the sqlfire.debug.true system property to log
additional details about SQLFire behavior:
EnablesTrace flag
Detailed logging for distributed queries and DML statements,
including information about message distribution to SQLFire
members and scan types that were opened.
