Use the administrative console to configure the JVM logs
for an application server.
About this task
To log events or information from a running JVM, you can
use the administrative console to configure the settings you need
for each server. Configuration changes for the JVM logs that are made
to a running application server are not applied until the application
server is restarted.
Note: This topic references one or more of the application
server log files. As a recommended alternative, you can configure
the server to use the High Performance Extensible Logging (HPEL) log
and trace infrastructure instead of using SystemOut.log , SystemErr.log, trace.log, and activity.log files on distributed and IBM® i systems. You can also use
HPEL in conjunction with your native z/OS® logging facilities. If you are using HPEL, you can access
all of your log and trace information using the LogViewer command-line
tool from your server profile bin directory. See the information
about using HPEL to troubleshoot applications for more information
on using HPEL.
