3.4.7 Estimating the size of log files for Web Console server
This subsection explains how to estimate the size of log files that are output by JP1/AJS3 - Web Console.
This subsection covers the following JP1/AJS3 - Web Console log files:
-
Storage location
- For Windows, if the installation folder is in the default folder or a folder protected by the system:
-
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Hitachi\JP1\JP1_DEFAULT\jp1ajs3web\log\appserver{1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16}.log
The default %ALLUSERSPROFILE% value is system-drive\ProgramData.
A folder protected by the system is the path to a folder in any of the following:
- system-drive\Windows
- system-drive\Program Files
- system-drive\Program Files (x86)
- For Windows in which an installation folder other than the above is used:
-
JP1/AJS3-Web-Console-installation-folder\log\appserver{1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16}.log
- In UNIX:
-
/var/opt/jp1ajs3web/log/appserver{1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15|16}.log
-
Size
You can specify a size from 4 to 16,384 in kilobytes (the default is 8,192 kilobytes).
You can change size of the log file in the environment-settings file.
The required log file size depends on the trace level, operation details, and errors. The table below provides guidelines for estimating the log file size when the trace level is info (default).
Add one megabyte for estimation because re-connections might be required when JP1/AJS3 - Manager is disconnected or more operations might fail than you expect.
To estimate the log file size, add the estimation result for the Web GUI and the estimation result for the API.

-
Total number of units specified as monitoring targets being used.

If you want to use the Monitor screen, be sure to add the size of the log file for the Monitor screen. The method for estimating the size of the log file for the Monitor screen is the same as the method for estimating the size of the log file for the Monitor dialog box.
- #6
-
When displaying a root jobnet that does not have release information, the number of registrations of a jobnet-definition release is 1. When displaying a root jobnet that has release information, the number of registrations of a jobnet-definition release is the number of pieces of release information in the Being applied and Release wait statuses.
- Example:
-
This example estimates the log file size required to keep a one-week log, assuming the following conditions:
-
The Web GUI (Job Portal) operates for eight hours a day in order to monitor business processing on the Dashboard screen.
-
In this period, 10 Web GUI (Job Portal)s run.
-
The number of monitoring targets for the Dashboard screen is set to 1.
-
Automatic updating of the Dashboard screen is set to ON (the automatic update period is 10 minutes).
-
The total number of monitored units for the Dashboard screen is set to 10.
The required log file size is as follows:
-
Log file size required to perform initial display for an instance of Web GUI (Job Portal)
15 x 2.5 = 37.5 kilobytes
-
Log file size required to perform automatic update for an instance of Web GUI (Job Portal)
13 x 2.5 = 32.5 kilobytes
-
Number of automatic updates performed by Web GUI (Job Portal) per day
6 x 8 - 1 = 47 times
-
Log file size for one day for one Web GUI (Job Portal)
37.5 x 1 + 32.5 x 47 = 1,565 kilobytes
-
Total log file size in the period
1,565 x 10 x 7 = 109,550 kilobytes
When you round the above number and add 1 MB leeway, the result is 108 MB.

- Example:
-
This example estimates the log file size required to keep a one-week log, assuming the following conditions:
-
The statuses of operations are monitored once an hour by using the API function for acquiring a list of all units.
-
The number of monitored units is 5. A separate API function is issued to monitor the status of each unit.
The required log file size is as follows:
-
Log file size required to monitor each unit once
12 x 5 = 60 kilobytes
-
Log file size required for one day
60 x 24 = 1,440 kilobytes
-
Total log file size required for one week
1,440 x 7 = 10,080 kilobytes
Round the above number and add 1 MB for safety. The final estimate is 11 MB.
