Enabling the EventTracker filter

To enable the EventTracker filter, uncomment the filter definition and filter mapping in the web.xml file, which is located in Tpae root\applications\maximo\ maximouiweb\webmodule\WEB-INF\ directory.

About this task

If your web.xml file does not contain the commented code, you can enable the EventTracker filter by adding the code, without the comments. Add the filter definition between the last filter definition and the first filter mapping in your web.xml file. Then, add the filter mapping so that it is the last entry in the filter mappings.

Procedure

Open the web.xml file from the Tpae root\applications\maximo\maximouiweb\ webmodule\WEB-INF\ directory.

Remove the comment from the following code for the filter:

<-- Uncomment these lines to enable the EventTracking filter
	<filter>
		<filter-name>EventTrackingFilter</filter-name>
		<filter-class>psdi.webclient.system.filter.EventTrackingFilter</filter-class>
	</filter>
-->

Remove the comment from the following code for the filter mapping:

<--! Uncomment these lines to enable the EventTracking filter
<filter-mapping>
		<filter-name>EventTrackingFilter</filter-name>
	<url-pattern>/ui/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<filter-mapping>
		<filter-name>>EventTrackingFilter</filter-name>
	<url-pattern>/webclient/login/logout.jsp</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
-->

Save and rebuild the Tivoli®'s process automation engineenterprise archive (EAR) file.
Redeploy the EAR file.

What to do next

In the Logging application, a new row in the Root Loggers table lists the EventTracker filter as eventtracking with the key value log4j.logger.maximo.webclient.eventtracking. By default, the logging level is set to INFO, which logs all events. If the logging level is set to ERROR, change the logging level to INFO and select the Apply Settings action.
