Enable More Detailed Logging for SAS Object Spawner Troubleshooting

When resolving issues with the SAS object spawner, SAS Technical Support might request that you increase the logging level. To do so, you can use either of the following methods:

To increase the logging level for multiple spawner sessions (if requested by SAS Technical Support):
1. Open the spawner's logconfig.xml file, and locate the following lines:
  
  <logger name="App"> <level value="Info"> </logger>
2. Change <level value="Info"> to <level value="Trace">
3. Restart the spawner.
4. When troubleshooting is completed, open logconfig.xml again, change the logging level for the App logger back to Info, save the changes, and restart the spawner.
To temporary increase the logging level (if requested by SAS Technical Support):
1. Connect to the object spawner in SAS Management Console.
2. On the Loggers tab, change the App logger to the logging level that was requested by SAS Technical Support. It is not necessary to restart the spawner.
3. 'When troubleshooting is complete, return the logging level for the App logger to Information. It is not necessary to restart the spawner.

CAUTION:

Excessive logging can degrade performance. Do not use the DEBUG or TRACE logging levels unless you are directed to do so by SAS Technical Support.
