Problem conclusion

• ¢â€” ¦Note: We update our information centers monthly. The
  following Version 7.0 modifications will be available in the

  latest on-line documentation, go to the product library page

  ----------------
  ID: PM78505
  Problem: The information center does not document the
  custom property  "loggingDisable" for the  HTTP Channel in the
  channel chains. This custom property should be documented to
  provide details to the customers with information on how to
  disable properly the unwanted  logging in the chain.
  
  Resolution: Topic  ¢â‚¬ “HTTP transport channel custom propertie
  is updated to include the following description of the
  loggingDisable property:
  
  loggingDisable
  Use this custom property to disable NCSA, FRCA, and error
  logging on the specified chain.
  
  Data type   Boolean
  Default       False
  
  This update will also be made to the same topic to the V8.0 and

  in the Values to configure the Domain name field table, in the
  topic  ¢â‚¬ “Implementing single sign-on to minimize web user
  authentications ¢â‚¬  ½, is updated to include the following not
