Weblogic log level mapping

For quite some time now I wondered about the differences in log-levels. For instance, if you configure the log levels in the classes in SB12c or SOA Suite,  You see levels as INCIDENT , ERROR, and TRACE, even with several sub leverls (1, 16, 32). But on the Server Log configuration in Weblogic, you see levels a s ERROR, NOTICE and DEBUG, or TRACE.  And then in Java, JDK logging we even have other log levels.

Today I experienced the urge to look it up and fout this nice document. It describes the configuration of logging in Fusion Middleware. It contains this nice table:

ODL	WebLogic Server	Java
OFF	OFF	2147483647 - OFF
INCIDENT_ERROR:1	(EMERGENCY)	1100
INCIDENT_ERROR:4	EMERGENCY	1090
INCIDENT_ERROR:14	ALERT	1060
INCIDENT_ERROR:24	CRITICAL	1030
ERROR:1	(ERROR)	1000 - SEVERE
ERROR:7	ERROR	980
WARNING:1	WARNING	900 - WARNING
WARNING:7	NOTICE	880
NOTIFICATION:1	INFO	800 – INFO
NOTIFICATION:16	(DEBUG)	700 - CONFIG
TRACE:1	(DEBUG)	500 – FINE
TRACE:1	DEBUG	495
TRACE:16	(TRACE)	400 - FINER
TRACE:32	(TRACE)	300 - FINEST
TRACE:32	TRACE	295

This helps quite neatly. Especially, because to have ODL logging get through to the Server log-files, you need to set the appropriate level on the Weblogic server.
