■ Output destinations of Integrated trace log file

Starting with JP1/IM 12-10, all 32-bit Java processes for JP1/IM have been changed to 64-bit Java processes. Therefore, the integrated trace log output destination output by the Java process function of each function of JP1 / IM is changed.

The following is the destination of the integrated trace log for each JP1/IM function from version 12-10 or later. If you are using the log file trap function, you must change the settings as you change the destination.

Output destinations of Integrated trace log file (32 bit): system-drive\Program Files(x86)\Hitachi\HNTRLib2\spool

Output destinations of Integrated trace log file (64 bit): system-drive\Program Files\Hitachi\HNTRLib2\spool
