Viewing broker domain log information

Broker domain log information is written to the Event Log Editor in the workbench.

The Event Log contains information about events that occur within a specific broker domain. These events can be information, errors, or warnings. Each event contains the following information:
  • Message: The event number.
  • Source: What has caused the event, and where it has come from (within the broker domain).
  • Timestamp: The date and time that the event occurred.

The following steps show how to view broker domain log information.

  1. Switch to the Broker Administration perspective.
  2. In the Domains view, expand the broker domain with which you want to work, to reveal the Event Log.
  3. Double-click the Event Log. All broker domain log information specific to the broker domain with which you are working is displayed in the Event Log editor.

    If the broker domain is not connected, you are prompted to connect to the broker domain before the Event Log is opened.

    The Event Log view has two sections. The top half of the view lists all the events, in date and time order. The bottom half of the view shows the details of a specific selected event.

  4. Click the event that you want to view in more detail from the top half of the Event Log view. The details of this event can then be viewed in the bottom half of the view.
