ATG Search and Search engine activity log

We could use the SearchEngineActivity log files to get the request/response to the search engine from a commerce instance. This folder is located in each commerce instance or the instances from which the call to the search engine is done. The SearchEngineActivity log file folder can be configured @ SearchEngineService component ( /dyn/admin/nucleus/atg/search/routing/SearchEngineService).


To get the log files for the search engine calls, you need to specify the SearchEngineService.dumpingRequests as true. Then you need to specify the engineActivityPath as the folder in which you need the SearchEngineActivity logs.

Below you could find my SearchEngineActivity log folder.

Each successful call to the search engine from the commerce instance will create 5 files in the SearchEngineActivity folder : namely request, response, search engineinfo, stack trace and response row.

Each file name start with a specific sequence. You could see that the file name like "2630436491482_5900002_D-179430_6072_search_request.xml"  has first part "2630436491482" a sequence number for each request to the search engine,  then "5900002" is the search engine index file logical partition id, then "D-179430_6072" is the search engine host machine name and port in which the search engine listening.

The  request and response xmls are the SOAP request and response data from the search engine. Below given a sample request xml screen shot.



The engine details log file has the search engine info, like to which search engine the call is done and the port of the engine and the elapsed time,...Below given a sample search engine info xml screen shot.


The response raw is the response xml in a raw format and the stack trace has the full trace of the class and methods called for a single search engine call.

If the call to the search engine is unsuccessful or has got some error, then the log file name will have that specific deatils. For example the file name "4739687885869_6100002_D-179430_6074_search_timeout_request.xml" indicates that there was a search engine time out occurred for this call to the search engine.
