This appendix describes the following activities:

•Configuring Syslog

•Viewing Logs

Configuring Syslog

This section provides an overview of the UNIX syslog. For more detail, refer to the online manual page for syslog.conf.

Syslog is a general location or mechanism for logging informational messages or error messages. The messages are categorized by level, and each level can be directed to a different location specified by files, consoles, and e-mail addresses. Each line in the syslog.conf file describes the type of message, the location and how that message should be handled.

Available message levels in syslog are as follows:

•emerg—Emergency panic

•alert—Alert

•crit—Critical errors

•err—Other errors

•warning—Warning

•notice—Notice

•info—Informational messages

•debug—Debugging messages

•none—Do not send message to file

Note The Carrier-Sensitive Routing application sends messages at the err, info, and debug levels only. The debug level includes various GateKeeper Transaction Message Protocol interface attempts and additional logging of the dataset load process. This can be useful in determining where a valid dataset in the database may be fully or partially rejected during the loading process into the CSR.
