Use VIEW GGSEVT to view the Oracle GoldenGate error log (ggserr.log file). This file contains information about Oracle GoldenGate events, such as process startup, shutdown, and exception conditions. This information is recorded in the system error log, too, but viewing the Oracle GoldenGate error log sometimes is more convenient and may retain events further back in time.

The display can be lengthy. To exit the display before reaching the end, use the operating system's standard methods for terminating screen output.
