Message types

Security Verify Access is written in both the C and Java programming languages, with different types of messages for each language. Applications using the ISAM APIs are also written in these programming languages. Security Verify Access produces the following types of messages:

Runtime messages

Messages generated by applications, commands, and utilities using the ISAM Runtime component, and messages generated from the C language-based Security Verify Access components, such as WebSEAL. These messages are written to the runtime message logs based on their severity levels.

IBM Security Verify Access Runtime for Java messages

Messages generated by applications, commands, and utilities using the IBM Security Verify Access Runtime for Java component, and messages generated from the Java language-based Security Verify Access components. These messages are written to the runtime message logs, providing exception and stack trace information from the JRE.

Server messages

Messages generated by the ISAM daemons and servers. Messages from the policy server, authorization server, and WebSEAL servers are written to the server message logs.

Installation and configuration messages

Messages generated during installation and by the configuration utilities. Some of these messages follow the message standard and have an associated ID.

WebSEAL HTTP messages

WebSEAL provides the capability of logging HTTP messages. This message log capability is described in the Auditing topics in the Knowledge Center.
