Tracing, Logging, and Monitoring 

Use

There are various different tools available to help you monitor your adapter and message processing in your adapter. You have the following options within the SAP environment:

·        Tracing rewrites functions that help developers to recognize errors and solve problems.

·        Logging information comprises the status of a technical component on an SAP J2EE server. The audit log of the Adapter Framework collects information for each message.

·        Monitoring enables system administrators to monitor message processing within the system landscape.

Activities

To integrate your adapter in tracing, logging, and monitoring, note the following:

·        Construct trace objects with fully-qualified class names.

·        Adapter code must contain log, trace, and audit statements. See also: Using Trace Objects.

·        The adapter supports access to the Process Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI). See also: Connecting to PMI.

·        You must use adapter-specific logging categories. See also: Using Logging Categories.

·        The adapter must not call flushAuditLogEntries() for synchronous messages. See also: Creating Audit Log Entries.
