informatica code has generated 476 Gigs of session logs in Dev

My informatica code has generated 476 gigs of session logs in Dev.

Can some one explain how to reduce these logs, any settings in session level.

what are the checks I need to do in Session level and coding level.

Solution

  • This is usually due to logging levels set on the session

    Edit the session. Select config object tab there is override tracing which should be set to Normal not verbose initialisation or verbose data. Same for the tracing level on each of your transformations in the mapping tab of the session.

    You don't debug by generating millions of lines of logfile and trawling through all of them, you find ways to reduce the load such as running fewer records otherwise this is performance test where logging level should not be set above normal
