How to Change the Server Logging Level and the Database Parameters

  • Article

You can use the following procedures to change the logging level and the database log parameters from the Application Virtualization Server Management Console.

The following logging levels are available:

  • Transaction Only

  • Fatal Errors

  • Errors

  • Warnings/Errors

  • Info/Warnings/Errors

  • Verbose

Note   Because of the size of the log file produced when you use Verbose mode, the recommendation is that you do not run production servers with this level of logging set.

The database logging parameters determine the database driver type, access credentials, and location of the logging database.
