Configure trace logging
You can configure trace logging for the domain and for other objects within the context of a server hierarchy. Configuring trace logging involves enabling or disabling logging and selecting the subsystems to be logged. For details about the configuration user interface, see FileNet P8 domain properties (Trace Control tab).
To enable trace logging for selected subsystems
- In Enterprise Manager, right-click the node for an object that belongs to one of the server hierarchy levels and click Properties.
- Click the Trace Control tab.
- If the Enable Trace Logging button is visible, click that button. Clicking the button makes the caption for the button change to Disable Trace Logging and also enables the subsystem list control (discussed in the next step).
- Select the subsystems you want to trace. For each selected subsystem, select some or all of the following trace flags: Summary, Moderate, Detail, or Timer. (By default, all flags are selected when you select the subsystem.)
- Click OK.
REMINDER This procedure makes the trace configuration for an owned object independent of the configuration for the owner object. (That is, for any object other than the domain, the Override inherited settings check box is automatically selected. The check box is not shown as selected until you click OK and open the property sheet again.)
To disable trace logging
- In Enterprise Manager, right-click the node for an object that belongs to one of the server hierarchy levels and click Properties.
- Click the Trace Control tab.
- If the Disable Trace Logging button is visible, click that button. Clicking the button makes the caption for the button change to Enable Trace Logging and also disables the subsystem list control.
- Click OK.

To inherit the trace logging configuration (for objects other than the domain)
- In Enterprise Manager, right-click the node for an object that belongs to one of the server hierarchy levels (other than the domain) and click Properties.
- Click the Trace Control tab.
- If the Override inherited settings check box is selected but not enabled, click Enable Trace Logging.
- Clear the Override inherited settings check box.
- Click OK.
