Log Severities
Use
To modify the severity levels of a log controller (that is, of a category or a location), use the Min, Max, and Severity dropdown menus available in the Categories (Min and Max are only available in advanced mode) and in the Locations panes. For more information, see Adding, Editing, and Removing Log Controllers.
Below is a list of the different levels of severity, in ascending order:
Definition of Severity Levels
Severity |
Description |
ALL |
Allows message output of any severity. |
DEBUG |
For debugging purpose, with extensive and low level information |
PATH |
For tracing the execution flow, for example, used in the context of entering and leaving a method, looping and branching operations |
INFO |
Informational text, mostly for echoing what has already been performed |
WARNING |
The application can recover from an anomaly and fulfill the required task, but needs attention from a developer/operator |
ERROR |
The application can recover from an error, but it cannot fulfill the required task due to the error |
FATAL |
The application cannot recover from an error, and the severe situation causes fatal termination |
NONE |
No messages will be written at all |
In case of the Log Configurator runtime, the ALL severity level is always considered as a DEBUG level. That is, if you want to set an ALL severity level, the system will automatically change it to DEBUG.
