Introduction

• Infa9logs is a tool used to collect application services logs – both from log service and from file system, workflow logs and session logs.

Usecase / Scenario

• Infa9Logs is a command-line utility to collect multiple logs with a single command.
• It can be used to collect application service logs written to file system, log service agent, workflow and session logs.
• Logs being an important component for debugging, these logs help Informatica support obtain a holistic view of the problem with all logs collected for the same time frame

Features

• Collect all the service logs and platform logs at once.
• Can be run in silent mode.

Usage / Example

1. Before Starting InfaLogs-

- You can find InfaLogs in INFA_HOME/tools/debugtools/InfaLogs folder.
- If not, copy the zip file (InfaLogs.zip) from Informatica site to INFA_HOME/tools/debugtools/
- Unzip the zip file.
- For UNIX systems, chmod the InfaLogs.sh file to executable.
- Make sure it is located inside the Informatica Home directory.
- The present working directory should be inside the Informatica Home directory.
- INFA_HOME environment variable is NO longer required.

    2. Depending on the Operating System, start infa9log.bat/sh

    3. When the application starts, it may ask for a Java executable location if it is unable to locate one by itself.

    4. Application logs are stored in infalogout directory.
