Exporting Log Events

Exporting Log Events

You can export the log events to an XML, text, or binary file. To export log events to a file, click Export Logs on the Log Actions menu.
When you export log events, you can choose which logs you want to save. When you choose Service logs, you can export logs for a particular service type. You can choose the sort order of the log events in the export file.
The Log Manager does not delete the log events when you export them. The Administrator tool prompts you to save or open the exported log events file.
Optionally, you can use the
infacmd
GetLog command to retrieve log events.
The format you choose to export log events depends on how you plan to use the exported log events file:
  • XML file. Use XML format if you want to analyze the log events in an external tool that uses XML or if you want to use XML tools, such as XSLT.
  • Text file. Use a text file if you want to analyze the log events in a text editor.
  • Binary file. Use binary format to back up the log events in binary format. You might need to use this format to send log events to Informatica Global Customer Support.
The following table describes the export log options for each log type:
