4.5.3 Controlling Connector Logging

Each connector writes useful information to two log files, the connector application interface log file
and the connector pipeline log file. You can control the amount of information that is written to the
connector log files.

Selecting a Log Level
1 In Synchronizer Web
scroll to the Logging section
2 Select a log level.
Debug: Logs large quantities of developer-level data. This log level is appropriate for
troubleshooting purposes. It puts a heavy load on the connector and should be used only
until the troubleshooting activities are completed.
Info: Logs informational messages about normal connector processing. This log level is
suitable for a Synchronizer administrator who wants to observe the functioning of the
connector. However, it puts a heaver load on the connector than the Warning and Error log
levels.
Warning: Logs problems that should not adversely affect connector processing but
should be investigated and resolved for optimum performance. This log level is
appropriate for a smoothly running connector where you only want to be notified of
warnings and errors.
Error: Logs error messages that indicate critical errors in connector processing. This log
level puts the least load on the connector because it logs only critical errors.
3 (Optional) Select Verbose.
You can select Verbose for any log level. Selecting Verbose adds event data to the messages
regularly logged at the selected log level.
Admin, click the connector in the Manage Connectors section, then
to stop the connector, then click
