Hello,
Does WMB come with any command or support pack which displays EventLogs in command line / unix shell? In our production installation of a GUI tool is quite inconvenient. Thanks!
PS> I knew how to get it done in CMP, however... is there something official about this? _________________ Bazinga! |

You didn't say what platform you are working on. But for Unix/Linux...
Code: |
tail -f <path to log file>
|
This will work provided you have read access to the file. OOTB many Unix/Linux systems will not let mere mortal users read /var/log/messages.
This is why I recommend fixing syslog to write user messages such as broker event messages to somewhere mortals can read them. This is documented. _________________ WMQ User since 1999

Hello, thanks! but is event log identical to the syslog? I don't think so. I meant for Event Log of the WMBT. _________________ Bazinga! |

In Unix/Linux system the messages from broker that look like this
Code: |
Jul 1 11:07:58 ebiz-live-esb-broker-4 WebSphere Broker v6109[9831]: [ID 702911 user.info] (TESTBKR.MY_Grp)[65]BIP2951I: Event generated by user code. Additional information : ' 'FAILED: throw a RecordNotFoundException | com.ibm.j2ca.sap.exception.SapBAPIException: Error while processing property IMaxNoHits FILEDNAME=I_MAX_NO_HITS Error Error data exceeds max length for BAPI attribute IMaxNoHits(I_MAX_NO_HITS). This exception is from SAP Request node for the Search Merchant operation' 'ERR:TBD' 'CRITICAL' '
|
are all handled by the 'syslod' daemon.
How this handles events is dictated by the /etc/syslog.conf (or similar) file.
The above message is a USER Message.
If the following line is in the /etc/syslogfile then all user events will be sent to the file shown below.
Code: |
user.info /logs/mqsi/adm/wmbevent.log
|
In our systems this file is world readable.
Is this clearer? _________________ WMQ User since 1999

mmm.............. Thanks for it all the same. But it's not about the system log. I meant for what I see in the "Event Log" widget of WMB Toolkit. I'm trying to read contents there when there's only command line. _________________ Bazinga! |

There is a "deployment log" in the toolkit. There is also a "problems view". And a "console view". From the toolit main menu, click "Window", then mouse over "Show View". _________________ http://leanpub.com/IIB_Tips_and_Tricks
