The SIF Agent creates five kinds of log files. Each must be viewed with an external text editor like Notepad on Windows:
- Java Console output (wrapper.log). When the SIF Agent is run as a Windows Service, all output from the Java console (i.e. stdout and stderr output) is redirected to a file named wrapper.log in the agent's directory. This file is rolled and rotated when it reaches a maximum file size. (You can adjust these logging parameters from the service wrapper's MyAgentSIF.conf configuration file.) When run as a standalone program with the /n option, the Java console is visible on the desktop and no redirection occurs so you can view any trace statements on-screen for debugging.
- Agent Log File (logs/agent.log). The agent log file. The amount of information written to this log can be adjusted from the Agent Settings > Logging pane in the Console.
- Zone Log Files (logs/zoneId/zone.log). Zone-specific log file. Each zone has its own log file where most information related to the zone is recorded. The amount of information written to these logs can be adjusted from the Agent Settings > Logging pane in the Console.
- Zone Activity Log (logs/zoneId/activity.log). Records a one-line summary of each action taken on a zone.
- Synchronization Report (logs/zoneId/Synchronization Report.txt). When the Synchronization Wizard runs it produces a report of the data objects that were imported during the synchronization and any problem encountered. View this log file with a text editor.
