Log Method
The Log method of the SPGlobalAdmin class creates a log that indicates the severity of a problem in the Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services deployment and provides details.
Parameters
iSeverity A 32-bit integer that specifies the level of severity to report in the log.
strMessage A string that contains the description used in the log for the specified severity.
Remarks
The Log method logs to a text file in %temp%\Process_Name.log. For instance, stsadm.exe internally calls SPGlobalAdmin.Log(), which results in %temp%\stsadm.log being created.
The following table shows the possible values that can be passed in the iSeverity parameter.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Error. |
| 1 | Warning about a problem. |
| 2 | Ignorable but a potential problem. |
| 3 | Infrequent and happens once per thread, but only information, not a problem. |
| 4 | Uncommon and happens several times per thread, but only information, not a problem. |
| 5 | Common and happens numerous times per thread, but only information, not a problem. |
| 6 | Frequent and happens many times per thread, but only information, not a problem. |
