  • Selective logging based on set parameter
    Patent number: 8566646
    Abstract: Logging for an identified asset is coordinated when provided by applications implemented on multiple network elements. An indicator is set, prior to activity occurring related to the asset, to log information for the asset based on specified criteria. A first application implemented on a first network element generates, based on the indicator, a first detailed log for activity occurring related to the asset. A representation of the asset is passed to a downstream application implemented on a second network element. A second detailed log for activity occurring related to the asset is generated by the downstream application based on the indicator. The first detailed log is correlated with the second detailed log.

  • Selective logging based on set parameter
    Patent number: 8448026
    Abstract: Logging for a transaction is coordinated when provided by applications implemented on multiple nodes. An indicator is set, prior to activity occurring related to a transaction, to log information for a transaction based on specified criteria. A first application implemented on a first node generates, based on the set indicator, a first detailed log for activity occurring related to the transaction. A transaction identifier and the indicator are passed to a downstream second application implemented on a second node. A second detailed log for activity occurring related to the transaction is generated by the downstream second application based on the set indicator. The first detailed log is correlated with the second detailed log.

  • Selective logging based on set parameter
    Patent number: 8352796
    Abstract: Providing asset-based logging by setting a flag for an identified asset and a transaction includes generating a first detailed log for logging activity related to the identified asset and the transaction by a first application implemented on a first node. A transaction identifier, the flag, and any of the identified asset, information generated by the first application implemented on the first node, information provided to the first application implemented on the first node and a representation of the identified asset is passed to at least one downstream application implemented on at least one second node. Detailed logs generated by the at least one downstream application are correlated with the first detailed log.
