 Run-time events
 Custom messages
Log entries are a blend of status and result

messages
 Log providers can write log entries to
text files, SQL Server Profiler, SQL
Server, Windows Event Log, or XML
files
 Logs are associated with packages and are
configured at the package level. Each task
or container in a package can log
information to any package log. The tasks
and containers in a package can be
enabled for logging even if the package
itself is not
 You can select a level of logging that suits
your needs by specifying the events to log
and the information to log for each event.
Events Description
OnError Writes a log entry when an error occurs.
OnExecStatusChanged Writes a log entry when the execution status of the executable
changes.
OnInformation Writes a log entry during the validation and execution of an
executable to report information.
OnPostExecute Writes a log entry immediately after the executable has finished
running.
OnPostValidate Writes a log entry when the validation of the executable finishes.
OnPreExecute Writes a log entry immediately before the executable runs.
OnPreValidate Writes a log entry when the validation of the executable starts.
OnProgress Writes a log entry when measurable progress is made by the
executable.
OnQueryCancel Writes a log entry at any juncture in the task processing where it is
feasible to cancel execution.
OnTaskFailed Writes a log entry when a task fails.
OnVariableValueChange Writes a log entry when the value of a variable changes.
d
OnWarning Writes a log entry when a warning occurs.
PipelineComponentTimeFor each data flow component, writes a log entry for each phase of
validation and execution. The log entry specifies the processing time
for each phase.
Diagnostic Writes a log entry that provides diagnostic information.
The custom log entries are tailored to capture
useful information about a specific task in a
package.
E.g. for FTP Task:-

Events Description
FTPConnectingToServer Indicates that the task initiated a connection to the FTP server.
FTPOperation Reports the beginning of and the type of FTP operation that the task
performs.

 In Business Intelligence Development Studio, open
the Integration Services project that contains the
package you want.
 On the SSIS menu, click Logging.
 Select a log provider in the Provider type list, and
then click Add.
 In the Configuration column, select a connection manager or click
<New connection> to create a new connection manager of the
appropriate type for the log provider. Depending on the selected
provider, use one of the following connection managers:
 For Text files, use a File connection manager. For more information
 For SQL Server Profiler, use a File connection manager.
 For SQL Server, use an OLE DB connection manager. For more

information
 For Windows Event Log, do nothing. SSIS automatically creates the

log.
 For XML files, use a File connection manager.

 Repeat prior steps for each log to use in the package.
 Note: A package can use more than one log of each type.
 Optionally, select the package-level check box, select the logs to use
for package-level logging, and then click the Details tab.
 On the Details tab, select Events to log all log entries, or clear
Events to select individual events.
 Optionally, click Advanced to specify which information to log.
 Note: By default, all information is logged.
 On the Details tab, click Save. The Save As dialog box appears.
Locate the folder in which to save the logging configuration, type a file
name for the new log configuration, and then click Save.
 Click OK.
 To save the updated package, click Save Selected Items on the File
menu
