DataFlux Data Management Studio 2.5: User Guide

Accessing Logs

The following log files are provided for DataFlux Data Management Studio:

• Studio log for DataFlux Data Management Studio events

• Platform log for DataFlux Data Management Studio engine events

• DAC log for data access events

• TKTS log for events related to BASE data sets and data sent across the wire to the Federation Server

The Studio log, the Platform log, and the DAC log are enabled by default and are all logged to the platform log file. This log file has a name prefixed with platform_. The platform log file is saved to a user's profile area by default.

Windows XP path for platform_ log file: 
drive:\Documents and Settings\[username]\ApplicationData\DataFlux\DMStudio\[instance]

Windows 7 path for platform_ log file: 
drive:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\DataFlux\DMStudio\[instance]

Note that [instance] is the instance name, which is chosen at install time and defaults to 'studio1'.

You can save status history files for the data jobs and process jobs that you run. For information, see Reviewing the Status History of a Job. You can review and delete these status history files in the Run Status History section of the Data Job pane or the Process Job pane for a job when you select the job in the Folder riser bar.
