Generating usage statistics

IBM® Content Manager OnDemand administrators can run queries against the System Log database file to gather usage statistics about Content Manager OnDemand, provided they have checked the appropriate logging options in the Content Manager OnDemand Application Group definitions for the information they want to capture.

The initial System Log file name is SL2. This System Log file is found in the library whose name matches the instance name. For example, the initial System Log file for the QUSROND instance is named SL2 in library QUSROND on the IBM i server. When the initial System Log file becomes full, a new file is created, and its name is incremented by one; the name thus becomes SL3.

For example, on the Message Logging tab of an Application Group definition, the Content Manager OnDemand administrator can select the Retrieval checkbox, which provides messages in the System Log for every retrieval from the particular Application Group.

As another example, the Content Manager OnDemand administrator can set up Application Group fields such that when the end user searches on that particular field, the information is provided in the message placed in the System Log. To do this, select the Log checkbox on the Field Information tab of the Application Group for the field for which you want to capture information.
