Application-specific logging of Java applications

Configuration of message and trace logs for the IBM Verify Identity Access Runtime for Java (AMJRTE) component is completed on a per-application basis. This configuration removes the file contention and ownership problems that are encountered in previous versions of Verify Identity Access.

In addition to existing configuration properties, the application properties file created by the com.tivoli.pd.jcfg.SvrSslCfg command contains logging properties that are associated with the application-logging properties for the application.

The names of the logging objects and the log files in this configuration file contain the application server name that is supplied by the appSvr parameter of com.tivoli.pd.jcfg.SvrSslCfg. Thus, each application has a unique set of objects and log files. If the configuration file for an application is not being used (for instance, when the pdjrtecfg command is used), message log and tracing properties are taken from the existing PDJLog.properties file.

In addition, the size and the number of files that are used for messages and trace entries are now configurable.
