Logging

This chapter provides an overview of ImageMaster logging. How to configure logging is described in the ImageMaster AdminClient user manual [UM AdminClient].

There are different log files in an ImageMaster environment:

  • The default log file of the application server (e.g. “server.log”) contains application server specific messages, e.g. concerning the deployment.

  • The ImageMaster specific log files (“ImageMaster.log”) contain all log messages concerning the ImageMaster9 system. For more details see chapter Informational and error log entries – ImageMaster.log.

  • The log file (“CollectorService.log”) stores information about files that the system was unable to delete from the archive. For more details see chapter Failed services – CollectorService.log.

The exact location of the log files depends on the chosen application server. The CollectorService.log is stored in the same location as the ImageMaster log file. For details see [IM ImageMaster]. For example, within a JBoss environment the ImageMaster log file can reside in a location as follows:

/home/appserver/jboss-eap-X.Y/standalone/log/ImageMaster.log
