IBM BPM, V8.0.1, All platforms > Troubleshooting and support
Tools for troubleshooting your applications
IBM BPM and Integration Designer include several tools you can use to troubleshoot your applications that you develop and deploy on the server.
During development of your applications, you can use debugging tools in Integration Designer.
You can implement runtime troubleshooting capabilities into your applications using logging, tracing, and service component event monitoring. Administrators of running applications can use the failed event manager to view, modify, resubmit, and delete failed operations between SCA components.
- Debugging applications in IBM Integration Designer
To debug applications that are running on IBM BPM, use your application development tool, such as IBM Integration Designer. - Use logging, tracing, and monitoring in your applications
Designers and developers of applications that run on IBM BPM can use capabilities such as monitoring and logging that add troubleshooting features to applications. - Tracing problems related to persistence
When you encounter problems related to persisting data at run time, traces can be useful in analyzing the source of the problem. 
IBM Support Assistant Data Collector
Using IBM Support Assistant Data Collector, which is installed with IBM BPM, you can search for information, investigate problems, and submit a problem report to IBM.- Troubleshooting Service Component Architecture processing and call chains
Cross-Component Trace identifies whether a Service Component Architecture (SCA) operation completed successfully. It allows you to identify systemout.log or trace.log data that is associated with IBM BPM and WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus modules and components. The log records associated with the WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus applications hold information about errors or events that occurred during processing and can be used for problem determination using IBM Integration Designer. - Work with failed events in IBM BPM
If an event fails, it is stored in a database in the failed events manager. Use the failed event manager to search for and handle failed events.
