Instance log files


Location
The log files of may be located under the following folders depending on the type of the instance:

/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<XX>/work for Java Central instance (deprecated) /usr/sap/<SID>/J<XX>/work for Java Central or Dialog instance /usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<XX>/work - for ABAP/DoubleStack Central instance /usr/sap/<SID>/D<XX>/work - for ABAP/DoubleStack Dialog instance

Log files
The following log files can be distinguished:

Files starting with std_ Log files from the standard output of the processes. In this file you may find the output produced by System.out

Files starting with jvm_ The file may contain JVM error messages. Files starting with dev_ The file may contain information about the exit code of the processes. stderr2 Redirect out/err before start of framework dev_jstart Developer trace of the JStart controller

For detailed (context based) information please have a look at:

Startup Framework trace files Bootstrap log files Service Manager log files Cluster Manager log files

Lifecycle
The log files are rotated on instance start. All log files have three instances - a current one (from the latest start) and two backups. *std_* and jvm_** The log file from the current start has out extension. There are two backup files from previous starts ending on ou0 and ou1. *dev_** The current instance has no extension. The backup files have *.0_ and *.1_' extensions.

Java server log files


Location
The log files of the Java server processes may be located under the following folders depending on the type of the instance:

/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<XX>/work for Java Central instance (deprecated) /usr/sap/<SID>/J<XX>/work for Java Central or Dialog instance /usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<XX>/work - for ABAP/DoubleStack Central instance /usr/sap/<SID>/D<XX>/work - for ABAP/DoubleStack Dialog instance

Log files
The most important log files produced by the Java server

defaultTrace_.trc* Traces from the server processes, intended for developer's (and debug) use. server_.log* Located in log-server folder. Targeted to system administrators. The file contains entries for serious problems

Lifecycle
The log files are rotating. A new log file is created when the current one reach a certain size. The log files have several instances and when the number of instances is exhausted the old logs are overwritten. The configuration of the log files is stored as metadata header in every file:

<!--LOGHEADER[START]/--> <!--HELP[Manual modification of the header may cause parsing problem!]/--> <!--LOGGINGVERSION[1.5.7.1006]/-->

<!--NAME[..\..\work\log_bootstrap.log]/--> <!--PATTERN[log_bootstrap.log]/--> <!--FORMATTER[com.sap.tc.logging.TraceFormatter([%24d] %m)]/--> <!--ENCODING[UTF8]/--> <!--FILESET[0, 3, 5242880]/--> <!--PREVIOUSFILE[log_bootstrap.2.log]/--> <!--NEXTFILE[log_bootstrap.1.log]/--> <!--LOGHEADER[END]/-->
From the header above it is visible that the file set consists of 3 files with size ~5MB each. One can see also the next and previous file in the file set. The following log files should be present if the server is up&running:

defaultTrace_00.0.trc server_00.0.log
