Chapter 3. Log file types

Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator produces message logs, trace logs, and Common

Base Event logs that can be configured dynamically.

Message logs

Message logs record Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator system events as text messages so they can be reviewed later by customers or by IBM Tivoli Software Support. Typically, messages are used to provide information about how the system or application is performing, and to alert the system administrator to exceptional conditions when they occur. If an error occurs, you can check the message logs for information about the error, the cause of the error, and possible resolutions for the error.

Message logs have the file name msg.log, and are stored in the subfolder for each software component. Messages are localized based on the locale configured on the Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator server. There are multiple levels of message logs, and they can be filtered by message log level and software component.

For a complete listing of the Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator messages, see

Chapter 10, “Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator messages,” on page 95.

Message ID format

The message ID consists of 10 alphanumeric characters that uniquely identify the message. Each message ID includes:

vA 3-character product identifier

vA 3-character component or subsystem identifier

vA 3-digit serial or message number

vA 1-character type code indicating the severity of the message

The sequence of the alphanumeric characters in the message ID is COPYYY###Z where:

vCOP is a three-character release-independent product identifier. The system uses this product identifier to identify the relevant subdirectory that contains serviceability information when using the Tivoli Common Directory.

vYYY is the subsystem code, including the following subsystem codes:

Code	Subsystem
COM	Common
DEX	Deployment engine
JEE	j2ee — the Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator code that runs on the WebSphere
	Application Server.
PEZ	Policy engine
TCA	Tivoli common agent
TDM	TC driver manager
JDS	Job Distribution Service
UTL	Utilities
