9.3.2 Log files and directories to check

This subsection describes the log information that is output from Performance Management programs. For details about the name and size of the file to which the operation status log information is output, see the chapter that describes troubleshooting in the Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management User's Guide.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Common message log

This subsection describes the common message log, which is one of the types of log information for Performance Management.

The following table lists the output sources, the log file names, and the amount of disk space used for Windows.

#1

The value in parentheses is the number of log files that can be created for a single service. For example, 2,048 (x 2) indicates that a maximum of two log files, each with a size of 2,048 kilobytes, can be created. In this case, the total available disk space must be 4,096 kilobytes.

#2

The value 01 or 02 is appended to the file name of the common message log.

Sequential file method (jpclog)

Log information is first output to the log file whose name ends with 01. When the maximum log file size is reached, the suffix at the end of the log file name is changed from 01 to 02, and a new log file with the suffix 01 is created. Log information is then output to the new 01 log file. If a log file with a name ending in 02 already exists, that log file will be overwritten when the 01 suffix is changed to 02. The most recent log information is always output to the log file with a 01 suffix.

Wrap-around file method (jpclogw)

Log information is first output to the log file whose name ends with 01. When the maximum log file size is reached, a new log file with the suffix 02 is created. Log information is then output to the new 02 log file. If a log file with a name ending in 02 already exists, all data is deleted from that log file, and then log information is output from the beginning of the file. Thereafter, the log files are used alternately.

For details about how to output log information to log files, see the chapter that describes detection of Performance Management failures in the Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management User's Guide.

#3

The environment folder is on the shared disk that was specified when the logical host was created.

You can use the following methods to check and change the maximum file size for the agent log:

[Figure] jpcconf inst command

[Figure] Remote Monitor Configuration property in the PFM - Web Console window

For details about how to change the maximum file size with the jpcconf inst command, see 3.6.2 Updating an instance environment.

#2

The agent log uses the sequential method. First, log information is output to a log file with a file name ending with 01. When the size of the log file reaches the maximum limit, the end of the log file name changes from 01 to 02, and a new log file with a file name ending with 01 is created. After that, log information is output to the log file with the file name ending with 01. If a log file with a file name ending with 02 or higher already exists, that file is overwritten. The latest log data is always output to a log file with a file name ending with 01.

In the file name, nn indicate a number from 01 to 04.

#3

The value in parentheses is the number of log files. For example, 3 (x 4) indicates that a maximum of four log files, each with a size of 3 megabytes, can be created. In this case, the total available disk space must be 12 megabytes.

Use the following formula to estimate the amount of disk space used by agent logs per instance. The units are megabytes.

(4 + number-of-monitored-hosts) x 4 x Log_Size-value-specified-for-the-instance-environment

#4

The environment folder is on the shared disk that was specified when the logical host was created.
