Output formats

There are two output formats, i. e. layouts, for Tpms.Powershell messages:

• classic output
• output in table form

You can change to the table form using the cmdlet Format-TpmsDispatch.

Log levels

There are the log levels Fatal, Error, Warn, Info, Debug and Trace.

By enabling – for instance – the Info level all message of the levels Info, Warn, Error and Fatal will be shown. By enabling – for instance – the Error level only the mes­sages of the levels Error and Fatal will be shown.

You can change between the log levels using the cmdlet Set-TpmsLogLevel.

Message sources

There are the three sources for generating messages:

• Client = Tpms.Powershell
• Service = Tpms.Service
• Agent = Tpms.Agent

Message contents

The messages of Tpms.Powershell can contain:

• the job ID when a job is started on the Service or on the Agent
• the thread number (for debugging purposes only)

job ID of Tpms.Agent

empty job ID because there isn’t a job started yet

thread number

• the error code of the source (if the error is related to the source itself, e.g. if the Service is unable to connect to the Agent)
• the error code of a specific process (which do not apply to the entire source) with its translation if pos­sible
• at bottom level: the description of an error message
