Log Manager Architecture

Log Manager Architecture

The Service Manager on the master gateway node controls the Log Manager. The Log Manager starts when you start the Informatica services. After the Log Manager starts, it listens for log events from the Service Manager and application services. When the Log Manager receives log events, it generates log event files.
The Log Manager creates the following types of log files:
  • Log event files. Stores log events in binary format. The Log Manager creates log event files to display log events in the Logs tab. When you view events in the Administrator tool, the Log Manager retrieves the log events from the event nodes.
    The Log Manager stores the files by date and by node. Set the directory path with the infasetup tools
    defineDomain
    command -ld option.
  • Guaranteed Message Delivery files. Stores domain, application service, and user activity log events. The Service Manager writes the log events to temporary Guaranteed Message Delivery files and sends the log events to the Log Manager.
    If the Log Manager becomes unavailable, the Guaranteed Message Delivery files stay in the default log directory on the node where the service runs. By default, the directory path is
    <Informatica_installation_directory>/logs/<Node_Name>
    . When the Log Manager becomes available, the Service Manager for the node reads the log events in the temporary files, sends the log events to the Log Manager, and deletes the temporary files.
