The SYSOUT option does not allow you to specify a level such as INFO, CONFIG, FINE, FINER,FINEST, as is with the Java commons logging API. You can only turn it on or off. Using the Commons logging allows us to turn on logging in the WAS admin console without redeploying the application, which is critical for debugging a production situation. it is standard practice to turn off system.out.println statements in the Admin console for production servers, which effectively hides these statements.
