Server-side logs

Developers may find it useful to consult the following logs that are available on Opal servers

/var/log/opal/datashield.log
  • Datashield audit log. Records datashield user actions:
  • the datashield command inspection (line containing "parsing ...") and the validation failure (if any)
  • the datashield command execution (line containing "evaluating ..." or "assigning ...")
/var/log/opal/opal.log
  • General purpose log. Default shows only info, warn and error messages.
/var/log/opal/rest.log
  • Opal web services audit log: who accessed to which rest resource and what was the result
/var/log/opal/stdout.log
  • Opal process output
/var/lib/rserver/logs/Rserve.log
  • Rserve process output
/var/lib/rserver/logs/rserver-admin.log
  • The Rserve process is managed by a small java application (rserver-admin). This one is the general purpose log of this manager (mainly logs starts/stops of the Rserve process)
/var/log/rserver/stdout.log
  • reserver-admin process output

Server log of DataSHIELD analysis commands

Opal keeps a log of all the commands that are run in the server-side R environment. These are stored on the server in:

/var/log/opal/datashield.log

Example

DataSHIELD commands

From the client, we can run the following commands:

ds.dim(x='D')
ds.dim('D', type='combine')
ds.colnames(x='D')
ds.class(x='D$LAB_HDL')
ds.quantileMean(x='D$LAB_HDL')
ds.mean(x='D$LAB_HDL')
ds.log(x='D$LAB_HDL')
ds.log(x='D$LAB_HDL', newobj='log_lab_hdl')
ds.length (x='LAB_HDL_log')
ds.length(x='D$LAB_HDL')
ds.assign(toAssign='D$LAB_HDL-1.562', newobj='LAB_HDL.c')
ds.mean(x='LAB_HDL.c')
ds.table1D(x='D$GENDER')
ds.table2D(x='D$DIS_DIAB', y='D$GENDER')

Log output

This generates the following log output:
