issue with SAP logging

Hi All,

As part of logging under IS, for SAP Adapter we are setting log level to be Warn. But when we are doing Server restart its auto switching to Trace which is increasing log sizes. Any guess why its happening like this.

Thanks,

Hi R P,

Would you check at which fix level you are?

As it is being intended behavior for SAP_7.1_Fix8 , kindly read the release notes of this fix for further information.

Hi,

its a know issue.

following is from the readme of webMethods SAP Adapter 7.1 Fix8

issue :
The log level of webMethods SAP Adapter is set and modified only
in the SAP Adapter user interface in Integration Server
Administrator. The log level of the Integration Server log
component ‘SAP Adapter’ must always be set to ‘Trace’, otherwise
the adapter log messages may be lost or not displayed completely.

Fix: webMethods SAP Adapter 7.1 Fix8
The issue is resolved. webMethods SAP Adapter 7.1 now sets the
log level of the ‘SAP Adapter’ Integration Server log component
automatically to ‘Trace’ whenever the log level is set or changed
in the SAP Adapter user interface.

as a workaround , you can update the log level at SAP adapter admin page.

Hi,

we are using the Default settings here:

  • Trace in IS (ste automatically as described)
  • Info in SAP-Adapter

and we are not encountering extraordinary growth of log files.

There for I suggest the following:

  • Keep the setting in IS at Trace
  • Check the settings in the SAP-Adapter.

Holger

Thanks All for your valuable inputs.

If i want to have ‘Warning’ always, how can i achieve this. Any thoughts on this ?

Thanks,

Hi R P,

To implement the same you need to restrict it while generation of logs itself, for that you need to use SAP Adapter UI, IS Admin —> SAP Adpapter—>Settings —>Level of logging
