Server Log File Severity Levels

The following table describes the log levels that you see in server log files, in the decreasing order of severity.

Log Level		Description

0	FATAL	Use this log level for serious, non-recoverable errors that can cause the abrupt termination of the RiskMinder service. At the FATAL level, only situations which indicate a fatal problem will be logged.
1	WARNING	Use this log level for undesirable run-time exceptions, potentially harmful situations, and recoverable problems that are not yet FATAL.
2	INFO	Use this log level for capturing information on run-time events. In other words, this information highlights the progress of the application, which might include changes in: Server state, such as start, stop, and restart. Server properties. State of services. State of processes on the Server. For example, there are some logs that will always be printed to indicate that requests are being received and that they are being processed. These logs appear at the INFO level.
3	LOW DETAIL	Use this log level for logging detailed information for debugging purposes. This might include process tracing and changes in Server states.

Note: When you specify a log level, messages from all other levels of higher significance are reported as well. For example if the LogLevel is specified as 3, then messages with log levels of FATAL, WARNING, and INFO level are also captured.
