Logs for steps run by the user interface

In addition to collecting input from the user, the user interface of the Tivoli middleware installer also performs several system checks. Examples of system checks run by the user interface runs include: v dependency checking to ensure the operating system meets the deployment requirements v inventorying the software on the system to locate existing instances of middleware products deployed by the Tivoli middleware installer v checking the available disk space to ensure there is enough for the deployment

Each of these checks is produced in the form of a step so that it can also be run as part of the deployment plan. When the user interface runs a step, it copies the step into a subdirectory of the workspace directory. The log files generated by a step are located in the same subdirectory and follow the same pattern as a step that is run as part of the deployment plan.

Deployment plan logs

The deployment plan is located in the directory <Workspace Directory>/hostname/deploymentPlan, where hostname is the hostname of the current system. Each time the deployment plan is used to install or uninstall middleware products, a process ID is assigned and log files are generated.

The log files for the deployment plan are located in the subdirectory logs/processID. The primary log file for the deployment plan is DeploymentPlan.log, a high-level log file that lists the steps invoked as part of the deployment plan.

Machine plan logs

The machine plan is located in the directory <Workspace Directory>/hostname/deploymentPlan/MachinePlan_hostname. The log files for the machine plan are located in the logs subdirectory. The primary log files for the machine plan are named MachinePlan_hostname_processID. These log files contain the output generated by ANT when running the machine plan ANT script.

Deployment plan logs

Each step in the deployment plan is located in a directory named <Workspace Directory>/hostname/deploymentPlan/MachinePlan_hostname/stepNum_stepID where stepNum is the sequence number of this step in install processing order of the deployment plan and stepID identifies the step. The log files for the step are located in the logs subdirectory.

Some steps may provide a message log file named stepID_processID.message, which contains a few entries that summarize the result of invoking the step. All steps will provide a trace log file named stepID_processID.log, which contains
