Error message severity levels provide an indication of system health, and how seriously to take a message.
Do not view individual messages in isolation, however, since a system event may trigger a range of symptoms that individually may not seem related. Review messages as a group, look for trends, and view upstream messages in the log for possible initiating events.
| Severity level | Description |
|---|---|
| Trace | Finer-grained information than Debug. |
| Debug | Fine-grained informational events that are useful for debugging an application. |
| Info | Informational messages that highlight application progress at a coarse-grained level. |
| Warn | Warning messages that indicate a potentially harmful situation. |
| Error | Error events that may allow the application to continue running. |
| Console (off) | Messages sent to the system.out stream logs for the Sybase Control Center administrative console. |
