### Log Level Settings

There are several possible logging levels that you can choose to be collected in the `/var/log/hspc/hspc.log` file.on the Management Node.

The 'lowest' logging level, collects only messages about serious system problems, whereas the 'highest' level collects all logging related messages. When you specify a particular logging level, the messages for that level and all the levels below it are collected.

To set the log level:

1. Click the Edit button on the Log Settings screen.
2. Select the logging level from the Log Level drop-down menu:

- DEBUG - the lowest logging rank and is intended to turn on all logging.
- INFO - informational messages that highlight the progress of the application at coarse-grained level.
- WARN - messages about potentially harmful situations.
- ERROR - error events that might still allow the application to continue running.
- FATAL - very severe error events that will presumably lead the application to abort.

1. You can adjust the log messages format. To this effect, enter the format pattern into the Log Pattern field.

Note: The %X{key} placeholder can be used in pattern only one time. If you are not sure about a new log pattern, then leave the default: `[%d] [%p] [%P] [%M] %m %X{last_report}%n`
