Question about useful logs and information.
Hello,
We are in the process of creating an ISA
(http://www-306.ibm.com/software/support/isa/) Plug-in for Rational Team
Concert. This plug-in will contain a group of collectors that will
collect a majority of the relevant information to debug problems
pertaining to RTC. I want to ask the jazz community what logs or
information you find helpful for troubleshooting Jazz/RTC.
I've outlined the following configurations for Jazz/RTC:
Installations:
-Express-C: Zip/IBM Installation Manager
-Standard/Express: IBM Installation Manager
Server:
-Tomcat/Derby
-Tomcat/DB2
-Tomcat/Oracle
-WAS/DB2
-WAS/Oracle
Client:
-RTC RCP Client
-RTC Client in Eclipse 3.3 Client
-RTC Client in RSX 7.X Client
-Browser
Integration Points:
-Sametime
-CC
-CQ
-Subversion
What information and logs would you need to debug problems related to
the above configurations. Please let me know if I am missing any
additional supported configurations. I am not sure if IBM Http Server
was in the supported configurations.
Thanks!

AFAIK, source control client logging goes directly into the eclipse log.
We maintain some interesting flags in .jazz3/.flags relating to corruption of the copy file area. Recording their state (ie present/nonpresent) could be useful for debugging.

For the Jazz Build Engine, petting all of the output (stdout) from the process including any stack traces is usually what we require.
For problems that occur using the Ant tasks in the Jazz buildtoolkit, running the task with the verbose attribute set to true may produce extra output in the build log file (that is attached to the build result).

Aaron, maybe helpful for your task, too: The server log can be obtained
as an RSS feed by pointing a feed client to
https://<server>:<port>/jazz/service/com.ibm.team.repository.common.internal.IFeedService?category=SystemLog
