Metadata Manager Service Log File

Metadata Manager Service Log File

The Metadata Manager Service log file contains log events that the Metadata Manager Service generates and log events that the Metadata Manager application generates.
The Metadata Manager Service runs the Metadata Manager application in an Informatica domain. In addition to the log events that appear in Informatica Administrator, the Metadata Manager Service also creates a log file for events that occur when the Metadata Manager application runs.
Metadata Manager writes log events to mm.log in the following directory:
<Informatica installation directory>\logs\<node name>\services\MetadataManagerService\<Metadata Manager service name>
You can use the Metadata Manager Service log file to troubleshoot errors that occur when you run the Metadata Manager Service or perform tasks in the Metadata Manager application. The Metadata Manager Service log file contains additional information about the log events, including the specific Metadata Manager modules that generate errors.
The following table describes the log events that mm.log contains:
Event Type
Description
Metadata Manager Service
Log events that occur when you start and run the Metadata Manager Service. Also includes configuration information for the Metadata Manager Service.
Metadata load
Log events that occur during a resource load.
Lineage
Log events that occur when you perform data lineage analysis on an object, navigate the data lineage diagram, and view metadata objects in the diagram.
Metadata access
Log events that occur when you use the Metadata Manager application to access metadata in the Metadata Manager repository.
Custom metadata
Log events that occur when you create, edit, delete, and import custom metadata.
By default, Metadata Manager truncates the log file when it reaches 10 MB. You can also manually truncate the log file.
