Recommended Logs

You can use the following logs for DSAs in production environments:

• Alarm
• Diagnostic
• Statistics
• Summary

  Only use this for router DSAs. This file becomes very large for data DSAs.

• Trace

  When the trace level is set to none, this log acts like a console log. For test environments, set the trace level to error.

• Warn

Note: We recommend that you use only the logs that are actually required. Because a DSA has to write to the log files, keeping too many log files open can reduce performance.
