Event Severities

The system provides the flexibility to configure the level of information that is displayed when logging is enabled. The following levels are supported:

  • critical: Logs only those events indicating a serious error has occurred that is causing the system tor a system component to cease functioning. This is the highest severity level.

  • error: Logs events that indicate an error has occurred that is causing the system or a system component to operate in a degraded state. This level also logs events with a higher severity level.

  • warning: Logs events that may indicate a potential problem. This level also logs events with a higher severity level.

  • unusual: Logs events that are very unusual and may need to be investigated. This level also logs events with a higher severity level.

  • info: Logs informational events and events with a higher severity level.

  • trace: Logs events useful for tracing and events with a higher severity level.

  • debug: Logs all events regardless of the severity.

Each of the above levels correspond to the "severity" level of the event ID. Therefore, only those event IDs with a "severity" level equal to the logging level are displayed.
