IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2            

Enable trace logging (optional)

Use a text editor to edit the Servlet descriptor (web.xml) file in the folder where the Workplace XT application is installed. You configure the trace logging settings in this file. To change the defaults, open web.xml, modify as necessary, and save the file. Redeploy the application after making your changes. Refer to "Task 7a-c: Deploy IBM® FileNet® Workplace XT" in the IBM FileNet Workplace XT Installation and Upgrade Guide for more information.

The following lines are examples of the text you would add to web.xml to configure trace logging.

<context-param>

   <param-name>traceLevel</param-name>

   <param-value>1</param-value>

</context-param>

<context-param>

   <param-name>traceDir</param-name>

   <param-value>your_path

</param-value>

</context-param>

Note: The variable your_path is the location you define. An example of the format for the location is:

Windows: c:\\tempdir\\your_path

UNIX: /temp/your_path

The trace logging level you specify determines the type and amount of information collected. The level you specify determines the amount of information collected. A direct correlation exists between the amount of information collected and the performance impact on the system.

The following table briefly describes the levels.

Table 1. This table describes the logging levels.
