Lets you set the level of information logged during a run. By default, only warnings and severe errors are logged. Typically, you change this log level only when requested to do so by IBM Software Support.
To set the level of information logged and whether it is logged for all users or a representative sample:
Option | Description |
---|---|
All, Finest, Finer, Fine | Set these options only if you are requested to do so by technical support. |
Config | Logs static configuration messages. Configuration messages, which include hardware specifications or system profiles, require no corrective action. |
Info | Logs informational messages. Informational messages, which include system state, require no corrective action. |
Warning | Logs warning messages. This is the default setting. Warning messages, which include cautionary events that might indicate potential problems, require no corrective action. |
Severe | Logs critical and fatal errors. Critical and fatal messages interrupt normal program execution, and you need to take corrective action. |
None | Turns logging off. |
Option | Description |
---|---|
Fixed number of users | The number is applied to each user group. Assume that your schedule contains two user groups. One group contains 4 users, and one group contains 1000 users. If you sample 2 users, two users are sampled from each group. |
Percentage of users | The percentage is applied to each user group—but at least one user will be sampled from each group. Assume that your schedule contains two user groups. One group contains 4 users, and one group contains 1000 users. If your sampling rate is 10%, one user is sampled from the first group, and 100 users are sampled from the second group. If your sampling rate is 25%, one user is sampled from the first group, and 250 users are sampled from the second group. |
