Standard mode: Standard mode is the default mode. It generates standard log files that are sufficient for providing basic information. This mode may be inadequate for detailed troubleshooting.

Developer mode: Developer mode generates detailed log files that are sufficient for troubleshooting.

Debug mode: Debug mode generates log files that record every activity in detail and provide the user with information for troubleshooting obscure or hard to find issues. Debug mode log files are useful for technical support.
