Error log stream record output

This article provides two samples of error log stream output and explains the various attributes they contain.

There are two error log stream records:
If you do not want the name of the cell, node, and cluster included in the error log output, complete the following actions:
  1. In the administrative console, click Environment > WebSphere variables.
  2. Select the appropriate scope, and then click New.
  3. Enter private_bborlog_include_extra_server_info in the Name field and false in the Value field.
  4. Save and synchronize your changes, and then stop, and restart the server.

Sample output from a server logstream: The numbers to the left of each sample were added to specify lines. The numbers will not be in the actual output.

The log stream record output fields from stream BBO.BOSSXXXX are:

Sample output from CERR of a server:

Saving your BBORBLOG browser output

When you use the BBORBLOG browser, it creates a data set name, which depends on the TSO PROFILE PREFIX value. If you invoke the TSO environment with a TSO PROFILE PREFIX definition value, this value is used, in conjunction with the log stream name, to form the output data set. For example, if you issue the TSO PROFILE PREFIX(HARRY) command and the log stream name is BBO.BOSSXXXX, the output data set is HARRY.BBO.BOSSXXXX.You should rename the output data set if you wish to save your browser output.

You can use the outdsn parameter to specify a name for the output data set before you save it. For more information on this parameter, see the usage information on the BBORBLOG log browse utility.

The contents of the current view of the log stream will remain until the stream reaches its retention date. The next time you invoke the browser, however, the current view of the log stream will be deleted because it uses the same data set name. The previous data will exist in another record (not the current view) until its retention date.

If you use the outdsn parameter to specify a unique output data set name the current view of the log stream is not deleted.
