Configuring Net.Data for Error Message Logging

To configure Net.Data for error message logging, you need to set configuration variables to specify where the log file is stored and what level of error messages Net.Data needs to capture.

Setting the Error Log File Directory

The name of the error log file is netdata.error.log. Use the DTW_ERROR_LOG_DIR configuration variable to specify the directory in which the trace file is stored.

Syntax:

DTW_ERROR_LOG_DIR [=] full directory
path

Example:

DTW_ERROR_LOG_DIR /usr/lpp/internet/server_root/logs

Setting the Level of Error Logging

Determine the type of messages that Net.Data logs by setting the value of the configuration variable, DTW_ERROR_LOG_LEVEL.

Syntax:

DTW_ERROR_LOG_LEVEL [=] OFF|INFORMATION|ALL

Where:

OFF
Specifies that no error messages are captured in the error message log. This is the default value.

INFORMATION
Net.Data logs messages marked "Information" (I).

ALL
All messages are logged.

Example:

DTW_ERROR_LOG_LEVEL ALL
