The SAS 9 Data Integration, Business Intelligence and Solution environment, creates a raft of log files and you can guarantee that at some stage you are going to have to review them to identify the source of a problem, in fact you should probably review them on an ongoing basis to indentfy any potential issues.

These logs also have a habit of getting very large, very quickly, so you may also want to archive them regualry.

So to assist with these tasks, here is a list of all the logs we could find and details of what they contain.

Documentation of these is an ongoing process, so if you can't find what you are looking for send us a note or check later.   We break the logs down by:

• Web Server Tier
• Business Intelligence Server Tier
• Data Integration Server Tier
• Metadata Server Tier
• OLAP Server Tier

Note:  All paths are based on Windows servers.  Legend for path:

 

-servername- = your physical server, ie sasservr01
-drivename- = drive your SAS software was installed on, i.e D
-configname- = the configuraton name you used when you installed the SAS environemtn, i.e. SASSolutions
-levelname- = the level configuration name you used when isntalling the SAS environment, ie. Lev1

So it would all become:

\\sasserver01\D\SASSolutions\Lev1\
