You can control the level of logging for a job that you launch through the command-line interface. For the command-line interface, use the -log_level parameter of the create and move commands. We recommend using log level 0 or 1 during normal operation.
| Value | Command-Line Interface | Description | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | x | Disables logging. This is the default value for the -log_level parameter of the create and move commands. |
|
| 1 | x | Enables detailed logging. | You can view the logs of successfully completed or failed jobs with the status or view_log commands. |
| 2 | x | Enables extra logging for command-line interface jobs that use Teradata ARC by setting the VERBOSE option of Teradata ARC. | You can view the logs of successfully completed or failed jobs with the status or view_log commands. |
| 99 | x | Enables maximum logging.
|
You can view the logs of successfully completed or failed jobs with the status or view_log commands. Use log level 99 only under the guidance of a Teradata Technical Support Specialist when a job issue needs extremely detailed debug information. If you enable maximum logging, Data Mover creates temporary directories on the Data Mover Agent server that executes the task. These directories are not automatically deleted. When you no longer need them, delete the task_XXXX_YYYY directories in /var/opt/teradata/datamover/logs/temp. |
