Log Location

Log Location

The Service Manager on the master gateway node writes log event files to the log file directory. When you configure a node to serve as a gateway, you must configure the directory where the Service Manager on this node writes the log event files. Each gateway node must have access to the directory path.
You configure the log location in the Properties view for the domain. Configure a directory location that is accessible to the gateway node during installation or when you define the domain. Store the logs on a shared disk when you have more than one gateway node. If the Log Manager is unable to write to the directory path, it writes log events to node.log on the master gateway node.
When you configure the log location, the Administrator tool validates the directory as you update the configuration. If the directory is invalid, the update fails. The Log Manager verifies that the log directory has read/write permissions on startup. Log files might contain inconsistencies if the log directory is not shared in a highly available environment.
You can change the directory path for domain logs in the Administrator tool or with the log service directory parameter, -ld. You can use the -ld parameter with any of the following commands:
  • infacmd isp SwitchToGatewayNode
  • infasetup DefineDomain
  • infasetup DefineGatewayNode
  • infasetup UpdateGatewayNode
