See section "STAX Logging" in the STAX User's Guide at
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAX/staxug.html#Header_StaxLogging
for how to query STAX job logs using the STAF Log service.
To query a STAX job log for Job ID 45, use the following STAF log query
machine request (assuming stax1 is the STAX service machine and STAX is
the registered name for the service):
STAF stax1 LOG QUERY MACHINE {STAF/Config/MachineNickname} LOGNAME
STAX_Job_45
An example of the output from a query of a STAX job log is:

Sub-section "Formatting a STAX Log as Html or Text" talks about a Java
class, STAFLogFormatter, that you can run to format a STAX log (which is a
binary file that has been created by the STAF Log service) as html or
text.
For more information on the STAF Log service, see section "8.9 Log
Service" in the STAF User's Guide at

Thanks Sharon,
As mentioned in my previous query , Is it possible to do the same without
opening GUI ( i mean silently or in backend writing to file etc....), so i
can refer to the logs or the file and extract the required info .
Is it possible??
1) what command/API Stax monitor runs internally , so that i can call the
same command/API to do my work.
2)What stax monitor refers to present the datas.
3) Does stax monitor, monitors the "system under test" as a live user (
like a user does ) , or it just keep polling individual test case status??
4) Apart from test case status( in a job) monitor , what other feature
stax monitor supports, like can it monitor system hang, core dumps,
timeout scenarios,
5) Can I handle all these scenarios with stax monitor.
Thanks.

You can start the STAX Monitor via the command line as described in

For example to start the STAX Monitor for a STAX job with job ID 1 that is
already running,
java -jar STAXMon.jar -job 1
