If you do not want to replicate the same logging configuration
on all of your servers, maintain a separate logging.properties file
on each server instance.
About this task
When you create a
logging.properties file
and deploy it in the application server of the system, you override
the logging settings maintained in the database. In the Logging application,
when the application server is running and you change log settings,
these changes are only written back into the underlying database.
The next time you restart the application, the settings in the file
(not the settings in the database) are applied. The settings in the
file are applied because you have left a
logging.properties file
in the EAR.
Procedure
- In the Logging application, select the List
Logging Properties action.
- Copy and paste the properties into any text editor available
on the client computer.
- Edit the properties in the text editor and save the contents
as logging.properties file.
- Copy the file into a system installation environment where
you can generate a new Enterprise Application Archive (EAR) file to
include the logging.properties file.
- Copy the logging.properties file to
the maximo\applications\maximo\properties folder.
- After you generate a new EAR, deploy the EAR into the application
server using standard EAR deployment steps.
