Introduction

This feature allows the user to correlate metrics information with logs generated by the application and helps the user to identify any issue reported in the logs.

It provides support for accessing logs from multiple sources including NetForest and Splunk. The unique proposition offered here is by having integration of logs during the Netstorm performance load testing which forms an envelope for the application logs to give summarized data with transaction time and overall status. Then users can follow any specific streams to see the real application logs with the time taken in each stage.

The logs data is shown in a tabular form, with the priority attributes shown in the default view, with an option for the user to view other columns also by adding more custom columns in the table. The description of columns and actions is given below -

  • Log Time: Transaction/Application log time according to the dashboard time zone.
  • Message:It will display the message and information about the log entry.
  • Log Stream:A log stream is a sequence of log events that share the same source and are used for correlating the logs.
  • Log Group::Groups of log streams that share the same settings and configuration.
  • Follow Stream: Shows full stack of the selected Application/Transaction logs.
  • Diff(MS): Time taken by that Transaction/Application step.
  • There are two Action icons under this category-:
    • The show Full Message: User will see the full message or information in a popup window.
    • The follow Log Stream:User will see the Start /End Transaction /Application Logs.
