Settings for outputting action logs are defined in the jpccomm.ini file. If no settings are defined, no action log is output. The settings necessary for outputting action logs and the procedure are described below.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Setting procedure

(2) Details about the jpccomm.ini file

(1) Setting procedure

To specify the settings for outputting an action log:

Stop all PFM services on the host.

Use a text editor, for example, to edit the jpccomm.ini file.

Save and close the jpccomm.ini file.

(2) Details about the jpccomm.ini file

Details about the jpccomm.ini file follow.

(a) Storage folder

installation-folder

(b) Format

For the jpccomm.ini file, define the following items:

Whether to output action logs

Action log output destination

Number of action logs to be saved

Action log file size

The specification format follows.

"item-name" = value

The table below shows the items to be set.

Table I-4 Items to be set in the jpccomm.ini file and their initial values

No. Item Explanation

1 [Action Log Section] Section name. This cannot be changed.

2 Action Log Mode Specifies whether to output action logs. This item must be specified.

Initial value
0 (Do not output action logs.)

Values that can be specified
0 (Do not output action logs.), 1 (Output action logs.)

3 Action Log Dir Specify the output destination for action logs as an absolute path.
In a logical host environment, specify a directory on the shared disk. If the directory you specify is not on the shared disk, Performance Management will output action logs to each physical host that forms the basis for the logical host.
If you specify a path that exceeds the maximum allowable length or the system is unable to access the directory, an error message is output to the common message log and Performance Management will not output action logs.

Initial value:
Omitted

Value used when this item is omitted (default):
On physical hosts:
installation-folder\auditlog
On logical hosts:
environment-directory\jp1pc\auditlog

Available values:
Character strings from 1 to 185 bytes in length

4 Action Log Num Specifies the upper limit for the total number of log files (number of files to be saved). Specify the total for the current output file and shift files.

Initial value
Omitted

Value that is used when specification is omitted (default value)
5

Value that can be specified
An integer between 2 and 10

If a non-numeric character string is specified, an error message is output and the default value of 5 is set.
If a value outside the range is specified, an error message is output and an integer between 2 and 10 that is closest to the specified value is set.

5 Action Log Size Specifies the log file size in kilobytes.

Initial value
Omitted

Value that is used when specification is omitted (default value)
2048

Value that can be specified
An integer between 512 and 2,096,128

If a non-numeric character string is specified, an error message is output and the default value of 2,048 is set.
If a value outside the range is specified, an error message is output and an integer between 512 and 2,096,128 that is closest to the specified value is set.
