Configuring the Debug Level for an Agent Subsystem

For troubleshooting purposes, you can increase the logging level for an individual agent subsystem.

To increase the logging level for an individual agent subsystem, uncomment the appropriate line in the section of the agent.properties file that is labeled Agent Subsystems: Uncomment individual subsystems to see debug messages.

Agent log4j Properties

This is the log4j properties in the agent.properties file.

log4j.rootLogger=${agent.logLevel}, R

log4j.appender.R.File=${agent.logFile}
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=5000KB
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss,SSS z} %-5p [%t] [%c{1}@%L] %m%n
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
