What is the highest priority logging level in the Pega Platform?

In the Pega Platform, the highest priority logging level is Fatal. This level is used for logging critical errors that result in the termination of an application or a significant part of its functionality. Fatal logs indicate severe issues that require immediate attention from developers and system administrators because they represent system failure points that can disrupt operations.

Logging levels in Pega are structured hierarchically, where Fatal is designed to capture the most serious conditions. When an event is logged at the Fatal level, it usually means that the system cannot proceed without intervention, making it crucial for maintaining system integrity and reliability. Consequently, issues logged at this level prompt urgent response and resolution efforts to restore functionality and minimize impact on users and business processes.
