Before you begin
Configuring a filter lets you specify criteria for accepting log
messages for publishing; only the log messages that satisfy the filter
criteria get published. Setting a severity level is the simplest type of
log message filtering; for example, any message of a lower severity than
the specified threshold severity level, will be rejected. For example,
by default, the Stdout Handler has a NOTICE
threshold
severity level. Therefore, INFO
and
DEBUG
level messages are not sent to standard out.
To filter log messages by severity level or other criteria:
Only messages of the selected severity or higher are forwarded to the log destination. For information about message severity, see Message Severity.
For more information, see Create log filters.
Only messages of the selected severity or higher are
forwarded to the domain log. You cannot forward DEBUG
messages to the
domain log. For information about message severity, see Message Severity.
For more information, see Create log filters.
Result
Only messages that satisfy the qualifying criteria will be published to the log message destination.
