dev_webdisp_watchdog file maximum - enable log rotation

Former Member

Hi all,

we are using web dispatcher 7.2, we start our dispatcher with the below command.

./sapwebdisp pf=/sapmnt/WPQ/profile/WPQ_W01_biddeford -auto_restart -f dev_webdisp &

we can see two process started one watchdog and one main process.

parallelly two log files are created dev_webdisp_watchdog & dev_webdisp.

When the dev_webdisp_watchdog reaches its maximum limit, it creates a new file dev_webdisp.old (instead of dev_webdisp_watchdog.old) and writes logs to that dev_webdisp.old file.

Also when dev_webdisp.old reaches its maximum limit, the log file stops.

We want to enable log rotation, can some one help so that the log files rotates?

Also the watch dog should writes logs to dev_webdisp_watchdog.old instead of dev_webdisp.old, not sure why its happening?

is it a bug?

Regards

Senthil

Hi,

the trace dev_webdisp_watchdog is created if you start the web dispatcher with the

-auto_restart option for the high availability

Regaring the trace rotate, take a look if you are using options like

rdisp/TRACE_LOGGING and rdisp/TRACE_PATTERN_0. See note 112.

Cheers,

Clébio
