APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The Exception Log uses a set of four rotating log files, each of which can be up to 25MB in size. There is no way to configure how many files are used nor how large any individual file can be. Additionally, the log files contain the UUID of the integration server rather the name of the integration server. There should be an option to use the name rather than the UUID for ease of discoverability. Lastly the log files are written to the same folder as other trace files, e.g. /var/mqsi/common/log. This may be undesirable and should be configurable.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All users of the exception log in IBM Integration Bus v10 and IBM App Connect Enterprise v11	 Platforms affected: MultiPlatform, z/OS **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The Exception Log uses a set of four rotating log files, each of which can be up to 25MB in size. There is no way to configure how many files are used nor how large any individual file can be. Additionally, the log files contain the UUID of the integration server rather the name of the integration server. There should be an option to use the name rather than the UUID for ease of discoverability. Lastly the log files are written to the same folder as other trace files, e.g. /var/mqsi/common/log. This may be undesirable and should be configurable.
Problem conclusion
The exception log now has the following configurable properties: * exceptionLog - This property sets the file path and name of the rotating log files used by the exception log. The default value is [iib.system-common-log-dir]/[iib.system-node-label].[iib.system- server-uuid].exceptionLog.txt at v10 and [iib.system-common-log-dir]/[iib.system-node-label].[iib.system- server-label].exceptionLog.txt at v11. Setting this value to the empty string at v10 will restore the default value. * exceptionLogFileSize - This sets the maximum size in megabytes that a single log file should occupy. The default value is 25. The value must be a positive integer. * exceptionLogFileCount - This sets the number of rotating log files that should be used. The default value is 4. The value must be a positive integer. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v10.0 10.0.0.23 v11.0 11.0.0.11 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006041 If the maintenance level is not yet available,information on its planned availability can be found on: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006308 ---------------------------------------------------------------
