Author Rotation of WebSphere logs and Servlet logs

2006-09-27, 7:33 am

Greetings... Although I know some log rotation schemes and settings are available via the WebSphere admin console, not all are, for example the startServer.log, etc. Most of our servlet's have logging abilities as well. Is there a way to rotate these logs
without stopping and starting the WebSphere server? Such as syslogd?

Thanks

It depends on the logging API used.

Built-in log rotation in WebSphere foresees a new file can be created when a
certain file size is reached and/or at a certain interval (e.g. every day at
midnight).

What more do you need ?
