PK66656: THE DATA COLLECTOR, ON A DEFAULT INSTALL, RUNS WITH THE TRACE LOG AT DEBUG_MIN LEVEL.

ITCAM for WebSphere 6.1, Fixpack 4, 6.1.0-TIV-ITCAMfWAS_MP-FP0004

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The Data Collector, on a default install, runs with the trace
  log at DEBUG_MIN level.  This can cause a really serious
  performance hit, especially on Portal Server.
  This occurs on all platforms, all operating systems, etc.  There
  are no  log files to upload.
  %dc_home%/toolkit/etc/cynlogging.properties should have all
  instances of "DEBUG_MIN" changed to "INFO".
  On the IBM internal portal server where I tested this today,
  threads queued up with 30-second response times waiting for a
  chance to write  ITCAM log file entries.  With the log setting
  set to INFO, response  times were sub-second.
