  • 1.  ITX launcher Exception handling

    Posted 05/10/21 10:24 AM
    Hello Team,

    Is there a possibility of creating audit log/trace log during execution of the map in real time.
    Lets say if i create a flow using IFD and deployed in ITX launcher and that flow is called for 100 times in a day. Out of 100 executions only 1 gets failed. For this failed execution alone is there a automated way of creating Audit log/Trace log.

    Like adding an Exception handling to the IFD flow. If a failure occurs create a Audit/Trace log.

    I do remember that we can pass argument for exception when running the map using ITX command server.
    Is there a similar functionality in ITX launcher.

    If not there, Can it be added in the next ITX release? Which will help developers for easy debugging in real time.

    Thanks,
    Abi Gheever A.

    You can set up the map setting in Design Studio or in IFD.  For Audit log, you can say produce it OnError or OnWarningOrError.
    For trace, it's either ON or OFF.   In v9, the binary trace is introduced.  Unlike the text trace, the overhead is very small.  However each map may be different.  You can measure it by running the map in Design Studio with or without the binary trace.   The binary trace can be read by a utility that comes with ITX.  It can produce a trace that trys to point to the problem instead of having to look through the entire text trace.   It can also produce a text trace if needed.
