Logging Options

-loglevel

Syntax: -loglevel [nostdout] argument

Specifies the types of messages to log. By default, messages are written to standard output and to various log files in the subdirectory named /log beneath the Verity Spider job directory. If you add nostdout to the loglevel argument, messages will not be written to standard output. Log files, however, will still be created.
