SAS MDM Logging

Installation Log

A log of the modifications made to your computer during installation is written to \<SAS Home Directory>\InstallMisc\InstallLogs.

Database Script Logs

The database scripts that install or modify the schema generate log files in <SAS MDM Install Directory>\sasmdm\logs, as defined by the MDM_LOGS macro. These log files can be useful in determining problems during the initial configuration of the repository.

Data Management Server and Studio Application Logs

Log messages that document Data Management Server activity or job statistics while running jobs and services locally through Data Management Studio or dfwfproc are recorded in log files specific to the software that you are running.
For more information about Data Management Server and Data Management Studio logging, see the Data Management Studio: User’s Guide and the Data Management Server: Administrator's Guide.
