Details

Configures aTM logging. The severity controls verbosity of the log; logging only severe errors will provide the best performance at expense of reduced debugging information, should a debug trace be required.

This will not change logging as configured for each of the tasks in the target application (i.e. RRS logs). If this action is not called, no aTM log file will be created. aTM logging can be evaluated to see which requests were transmitted to the Maintenance Manager Server.

Example:

LogConfigure("5", "@STRING(C:\ParentDir\NENU\Logs\NENU.aTM)")

In this example, rolling 'NENU.aTM.#.log' logs is placed into the custom directory.

LogConfigure("5", "@APPPATH(export)")

In this example, the output directory is retrieved from the application service using Smart parameters. The path is the export directory for the current application.
