Comm Log
Comm Log messages are created during the communication between the Integration Server and partner systems. It is a database-based log (tables "comm_log*"). Comm Log messages are only created for communications that use a partner channel that has the checkbox for generating Comm Log messages set ("Use Comm-Log"). The "CommunicationLogService" must be licensed and activated on the Integration Server. The event-based Input Agent "CommLog" can be used to react to Comm Log events. Comm Logs can be found in the Control Center under "Logs/Comm Logs".
Standard dialogue
(1) Down arrow (top right): See section "Advanced search" below.
(2) Type: Filter to restrict the type of channel used for the communication ("All", "AS2", "FTP", "Mail", "OFTP", "SSH", "X.400", "Fax").
(3) Direction: Filter to restrict the direction of communication (inbound or outbound).
(4) Partner: Filter to restrict the name of the partner channel used.
(5) Job: The job number for the selected Comm Log message. You can jump directly to the corresponding job in the log overview of the Control Center via the context menu.
(6) File: The feedback file itself can be opened in the editor. For example an MDN (Message Disposition Notifications) for AS2. The file then is the pure payload, so only the file that was to be transferred (without envelopes and the like). Note: MDNs can only be found here if communication takes place via a partner channel.
(7) Message ID: If there is a link, it provides further details about this communication feedback, such as the save location of the file (8) and its MIC (Message Integrity Code) for AS2.
(8) Reason: In the event of a faulty communication, the reason for the failure is displayed here.
Advanced search
(9) Restriction: The search can either be unrestricted or restricted to Comm Log messages of a specific profile or Comm Log messages of all ASM entries. Note: If you select option "on ASM", only Comm Log messages of ASM entries that have archived the collected files are displayed. If the files were not archived, they were sent individually and you can find the corresponding Comm Log messages via the "on Profile" option by selecting the profile that sent to the ASM entry.
(10) Partner name: Select a partner from the partner administration to restrict the search.
(11) Type: Select the type of partner channel.
(12) Select status: The search can be restricted to messages with a certain status. If no checkbox is set, all messages that are in one of the four statuses are displayed.
(13) Message type: The search can be restricted to incoming or outgoing communications.
