Novell ACCESS MANAGER 3.1 SP2 - IDENTITY SERVER GUIDE 2010 Manual page 321

2 The following options are available for component logging in the File Logging section:
Enabled: Enables file logging for this server and its associated Embedded Service

Providers.
 Echo To Console: Copies the Identity Server XML log file to
tomcat5/logs/catalina.out
(Windows Server 2003), or to
stdout.log
logs/stdout.log
General Logging.
For the Embedded Service Providers, the log file location depends upon the device:
 For an Access Gateway Appliance, a Linux Access Gateway Service, or an ESP-
enabled SSL VPN server, this sends the messages to the
device.
For a Windows Access Gateway Service, this sends messages to the

of the device.
Log File Path: Specifies the path that the system uses to save the Identity Server XML

log file. The default path is
If you change this path, you must ensure that the user associated with configuring the
identity or service provider has administrative rights to the Tomcat application directory in
the new path.
If you have a mixed platform environment (for example, the Identity Server is installed on
Windows and the Access Gateway is on Linux), do not specify a path. In a mixed platform
environment, you must use the default path.
 Maximum Log Files: Specifies the maximum number of Identity Server XML log files to
leave on the machine. After this value is reached, the system deletes log files, beginning
with the oldest file. You can specify Unlimited, or values of 1 through 200. 10 is the
default value.
 File Wrap: Specifies the frequency (hour, day week, month) for the system to use when
closing an XML log file and creating a new one. The system saves each file based on the
time you specify and attaches the date and/or time to the filename.
GZip Wrapped Log Files: Uses the GZip compression utility to compress logged files.

The log files that are associated with the GZip option and the Maximum Log Files value
are stored in the directory you specify in the Log File Path field.
3 In the Component File Logger Levels section, you can specify the logging sensitivity for the
following:
Application: Logs system-wide events, except events that belong to a specific subsystem.
Liberty: Logs events specific to the Liberty IDFF protocol and profiles.
SAML 1: Logs events specific to the SAML1 protocol and profiles.
SAML 2: Logs events specific to the SAML2 protocol and profiles.
