(1) System log

The system log contains information that indicates the system status and reports problems. This log information is output to the event log file.

For details about the output format, see the chapter that explains log information in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management Reference.

Note about operations in a logical host environment

In addition to the system log of Performance Management, you need the cluster software's log in order to check the control of Performance Management by the cluster software.

(2) Common message log

The common message log contains information that indicates the system status and reports problems. This log contains more detailed information than the system log. For details about the name of the output destination file for the common message log and the file size, see 7.3.2 Log file and folder list. For details about the output format, see the chapter that explains log information in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management Reference.

Note about operations in a logical host environment

When Performance Management is running on a logical host, the common message log is output to a shared disk. Because log files located on the shared disk are inherited along with the system when a failover occurs, messages are recorded in the same log file.

(3) Operation status log

The operation status log contains the log information that is output by PFM - Web Console. For details about the name of the output destination file for the operation status log and the file size, see the chapter that explains error detection in the Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management User's Guide. For details about the output format, see the chapter that explains log information in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management Reference.

(4) Trace log

The trace log is used to collect log information that can be used for investigating a problem's history, and for measuring the processing time each process uses.

The trace log is output to the log file that each service of the Performance Management program has.

Note about operations in a logical host environment

When Performance Management is running on a logical host, the trace log is output to a shared disk. Because log files located on the shared disk are inherited along with the system when a failover occurs, messages are recorded in the same log file.

(5) Collected logs

Collected logs contain log information about processes related to record collection, and are output by PFM - Agent for Virtual Machine. Logs are collected for the purpose of obtaining detailed information about these processes when a problem occurs. For details about the output destination, see 7.3.2(3) Collected log.
