Comprehensive logging messages help you confirm system configuration and debug problems in configuration and code.
VMware GemFire uses Apache Log4j 2 as the basis for its logging system.
Understanding Log Messages and Their Categories
System logging messages typically pertain to startup; logging management; connection and system membership; distribution; or cache, region, and entry management.
