The Console North Connector displays filenames or values directly in the console output, making it ideal for * *debugging and development purposes**.

Using the Console in Production

In production environments where OIBus runs as a service (Windows/Linux), follow these steps to view console output:

  1. Stop the OIBus service using your OS service manager.
  2. Launch OIBus manually from a terminal with administrative privileges:
    • Windows: Navigate to the installation folder and execute go.bat.
    • Linux: Navigate to the installation folder and run go.sh.
  3. View the console output directly in the terminal.
Important

After debugging, remember to:

  1. Exit the terminal session.
  2. Restart the OIBus service using your OS service manager to resume normal operation.

Best Practices

  • Use verbose mode during development or troubleshooting to inspect data structure and content.
  • Do not use in production to reduce console clutter.
  • For persistent data, consider using the File Writer North Connector instead of relying solely on console output.
