Text Analytics (TA) Server Readiness validation report

The TA Server Readiness Validator generates reports at the end of the validation process summarizing the preparation status of the TAS servers.

Validation report types

The TA Server Readiness Validator generates two types of validation reports:

  • Server-specific report

    • Server-specific reports are generated for each TAS server in your deployment, including the TAS Management server.

    • Each server-specific report log file is identified by the FQDN of the TAS server for which it is generated with the date and time:

      validation_log_<fqdn_tas_server_date_time>.log

      Example:

      validation_log_TLWHVRHEL061.tlvlabqm.com_2018-06-04T11:22:16Z.log

  • Unified report

    • The unified report consolidates the information from each of the individual server reports.

    • The unified report file is identified by the date and time it is generated:

      Unified_validation_log_<date_time>.log

      Example:

      Unified_validation_log_2018-06-03T09:28:37Z.log
