Setting Service Container Log Properties

Adjust the log properties for viewing service container runtime information that gets recorded to the <installation directory>\log\SC55.X.log file.

  1. Use a text editor to open the <installation directory>\EAServer\bin\logging.properties file.
  2. Specify a level of logging for each type of log listed in the logging.properties file.
    Log level Description
    SEVERE Minimum amount of information. Indicates only serious failures.
    WARNING Warning messages indicating potential problems.
    INFO Informational messages.
    CONFIG Static configuration messages.
    FINE Tracing information.
    FINER Detailed tracing information for debugging.
    FINEST Maximum amount of information. All messages are logged.
  3. Customize the logging behavior of the SC55.X.log files.
    Variable Description
    com.sybase.soa.services.logging.SybFileHandler.limit Specifies the maximum size of each SC55.X.log file, in bytes. The default value is 10000000.
    com.sybase.soa.services.logging.SybFileHandler.count Specifies the maximum number of SC55.X.log files maintained. The default value is 10.
    For example, using the default values, when the SC55.0.log file reaches its maximum size of 10000000 bytes, the file is renamed SC55.1.log , and a new SC55.0.log is started. The next time the SC55.0.log reaches its maximum size, it renames that second edition as SC55.2.log. This pattern of renaming the file continues only until the file count reaches SC55.10.log. Then only SC55.10.log is overwritten.
  4. To extend or enhance logging so business process events are recorded at a more granular level, locate and uncomment the following line: com.sybase.bpe.engine.ProcessInstance.level = FINER
  5. Save and close the file.
  6. Restart Service Container.
