Configuring logging methods
In the tree, select or underneath the node, and click the Properties tab. On the Properties tab, you configure the logging methods Text file, Event viewer, Log service and Custom, which you use for the event filters:
Filtering events and assigning methods
- Text File: Specify the name of the text file in the Name text box. Specify the directory for the text files. Select the values in the fields Maximum number of log files and Maximum size of log file in MB. If a file has reached the maximum size, logging will be continued in a new file. When the maximum number of files is reached, logging is resumed in the first file. To start a new log, click the button to delete the existing log. This deletes files such as <directory><name>.txt and <directory><name>_<integer value>.txt.
- Event Viewer: Specify the name of the log view. Event information will be written to a section of that name in the Windows Event Viewer.
-
Log Service: Specify the name of the computer, which runs the Infor BI Repository Administration log service. You must also specify the TCP port number that has been set for the log service. The processing of events by the log service must be configured separately:
- Custom: In the Assembly file box, specify the DLL file of the external log module and specify the name of the internal class that processes the events.
