Configuration

General

Attribute

Description

Range of Values

Default Value

Name

This attribute returns the name of the server.

The name can be up to 256 alphanumeric characters, but may not contain commas or spaces.

myserver

Machine

This attribute returns the name of the machine.

This attribute is an alpahnumeric string that cannot contain commas or spaces.

Null

Listen Port

This attribute sets the port on which this server listens for ssl messages.

Valid listen port

7001

Administration Port

Specifies an SSL port that the Administration Server uses to receive all administrative communication.

If you specify a value on an Administration Server, all Managed Servers use the port number (and SSL) to send information to the Administration Server. In addition, you must use this port number and SSL for any administrative commands. For example, you must use the port number to access the Administration Console on the Administration Server.

If you do not specify a value, an Administration Server uses its default listen port to receive administrative communication.

Any unused port number from 1 to 65534.

Null

Listen Address

This attribute allows you to set the listen address for the domain.

Note: To resolve a DNS name to an IP address, Weblogic Server must be able to contact an appropriate DNS server or obtain the IP address mapping locally. Therefore, if you specify a DNS name for the listen address, you must either leave a port open long enough for the WebLogic Server instance to connect to a DNS server and cache its mapping or you must specify the IP address mapping in a local file. If you specify an IP address for ListenAddress and then a client request specifies a DNS name, WebLogic Server will attempt to resolve the DNS name, but if it cannot access DNS name mapping, the request will fail.

MBean:

Valid listen address

Null

External DNS Address

If your system includes an address translation firewall that sits between the clustered WebLogic Servers and a plug-in to a web server front-end, such as the Netscape (proxy) plug-in, set this attribute to the address used by the plug-in to talk to this server.



Interface Address



Null

WebLogic Plug-in Enabled

Set this attribute to true if the server instance will receive requests from a proxy plug-in or HttpClusterServlet.

When WeblogicPluginEnabled is true, a call to getRemoteAddr will return the address of the browser client from the proprietary WL-Proxy-Client-IP header, instead of the web server.

If the server instance is a member of a cluster that will receive proxied requests, set WeblogicPluginEnabled for the cluster, on the Cluster -->Configuration-->General tab.

WeblogicPluginEnabled can be configured in ClusterMBean or ServerMBean. If specified in both ClusterMBean and ServerMBean, the value in ClusterMBean value takes precedence.

Logging

General

Attribute

Description

Range of Values

Default Value

File Name

This attribute describes the name of the file used to write the log messages to disk

The file name may contain up to 256 alphanumeric characters.

To include a time or date stamp in the file name when the log file is rotated, add java.text.SimpleDateFormat variables. Surround each variable with percentage (%) characters.

For example, if you enter the following value in the File Name field:

myserver_%yyyy%_%MM%_%dd%_%hh%_%mm%.log

the server's log file will be named myserver_yyyy_MM_dd_hh_mm.log

When the server instance rotates the log file, the rotated file name contains the date stamp. For example, if the server instance rotates its local log file on 2 April, 2003 at 10:05 AM, the log file that contains the old log messages will be named:

myserver_2003_04_02_10_05.log

serverName.log

Log to Stdout

Enables the server to send messages to standard out in addition to the log file. Use Debug to Stdout and Stdout severity threshold to determine the type of messages that the server sends to standard out.

Boolean

True = selected

False = not selected


Selected

Debug to stdout

Determines whether the server sends messages of the Debug severity to standard out in addition to the log file. You must enable Log to Stdout for this property to be relevant.

Boolean

True = selected

False = not selected


Not Selected

Stdout severity threshold

The minimum severity of a message that the server sends to standard out. You must enable Log to Stdout for this value to be relevant.

  • Info. Used for reporting normal operations.

  • Warning. A suspicious operation or configuration has occurred but it may not have an impact on normal operation.

  • Error. A user error has occurred. The system or application is able to handle the error with no interruption, and limited degradation, of service.

  • Notice. An Info or Warning-level message that is particularly important for monitoring the server.

  • Critical. A system or service error has occurred. The system is able to recover but there might be a momentary loss, or permanent degradation, of service.

  • Alert. A service is in an unusable state while other parts of the system continue to function. Automatic recovery is not possible; the immediate attention of the administrator is needed to resolve the problem.

  • Emergency. The server is in an unusable state. This severity indicates a severe system failure or panic.

Error

Rotation

Attribute

Description

Range of Values

Default Value

Rotation Type

Criteria for moving old log messages to a separate file.

After the server renames a file, subsequent messages accumulate in a new file with the name that you specified in File Name on the Logging > General tab.

  • None. Messages accumulate in a single file. You must erase the contents of the file when the size is unwieldy.

  • by Size. When the log file reaches the size that you specify in File Min Size, the server renames the file as FileName.n.

  • by Time. At each time interval that you specify in File Time Span, the server renames the file as FileName.n.

None

File Min Size

This attribute sets the threshold at which a new log file is created. Relevant only if Rotation Type is by Size.

Integer

500

Rotation Time

Determines the start time for a time-based rotation sequence. At the time that this value specifies, the server renames the current log file as FileName.n. Thereafter, the server renames the log file at an interval that you specify in File Time Span. You can create a recurring start time such as "every Monday at 09:00" or a non-recurring start time such as "9 January, 2002, 09:00."

Relevant only if Rotation Type is by Time.

Use the following java.text.SimpleDateFormat format to specify a date and time: k:mm. For information about this format, refer to the J2EE Javadoc.

If the date that you specify has already past, then the rotation starts immediately.

00:00

By default, the rotation cycle begins on the first minute of each day (12:00 AM), but you can configure the rotation cycle to start on a specific day of the week or on a specific date.

File Time Span

This attribute sets the threshold at which a new log file is created. Relevant only if Rotation Type is by Time.

Integer

24

Number of Files Limited

Indicates whether a server will limit the number of log files that it creates when it rotates the log. The limit is based on the value in File Count.

Boolean

True = selected

False = not selected

Not Selected

File Count

The maximum number of log files that the server creates when it rotates the log. Only valid if Number of Files Limited is true and Rotation Type is either by Size or by Time.

Integer

7

Domain

Attribute

Description

Range of Values

Default Value

Log to Domain Logfile

Determines whether this server sends messages to the domain log (in addition to keeping its own log).

Boolean

Enabled = selected

Not Enabled = not selected

Selected

Domain Log Filter

Determines which messages this server sends to the domain log. If you specify none, the server sends all messages of severity Error and higher.

This property is relevant only if Log To Domain Logfile is enabled.

Contains all Domain Log Filters that have been defined for the domain. A server can user only one Domain Log Filter.

none

HTTP

Attribute

Description

Range of Values

Default Value

Enable Logging

Determines whether the server logs HTTP requests. The requests are saved in a separate HTTP log file.

Boolean

Enabled = selected

Disabled = not selected

Selected

Logfile Name

This attribute sets the complete name of the HTTP logfile.

Fully qualified logfile name

./config/mydomain/logs/access.log

Format

Specifies the format of the HTTP log file. Both formats are defined by the W3C. With the extended log format, you use server directives in the log file to customize the information that the server records.

Common, Extended

Common

Log Time in GMT

Writes the time stamp of HTTP log messages in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) regardless of whether the host computer has specified a different local time zone.

Use this feature to comply with the W3C specification for Extended Format Log Files. This specification states that all time stamps for Extended Format log entries should be in GMT:

http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-logfile.html.

This attribute applies only if you have specified the extended message format.

Boolean

Enabled = selected

Disabled = not selected

not selected

Log Buffer Size

The maximum size (in kilobytes) of the buffer that stores HTTP requests. When the buffer reaches this size, the server writes the data to the HTTP log file. Use the Flush Every property to determine the frequency with which the server checks the size of the buffer.

Integer, in kilobytes

0-1024

8

Max Log File SizeK Bytes

This attribute sets he maximum size of the log file after which the log file rotates.

Integer, in kilobytes.

0 means that there is no limit to the size the file can reach.

0

Rotation Type

Criteria for moving old HTTP requests to a separate log file.

After the server renames a file, subsequent messages accumulate in a new file with the name that you specified in Logfile Name.

  • size. When the log file reaches the size that you specify in Max Log File SizeK Bytes, the server renames the file as LogfileName.n.

  • date. At each time interval that you specify in Rotation Period, the server renames the file as LogFileName.n.

Size

Rotation Period

The interval (in minutes) at which the server saves old HTTP requests to another log file. This value is relevant only if you use the date-based rotation type.

Integer, in minutes

2147483647

Flush Every

The interval (in seconds) at which the server checks the size of the buffer that stores HTTP requests. When the buffer exceeds the size that is specified in the Logfile BufferK Bytes property, the server writes the data in the buffer to the HTTP request log file.

Integer, in seconds

60

Rotation Time

Determines the start time for a time-based rotation sequence. At the time that this value specifies, the server renames the current log file as LogFileName.n. Thereafter, the server renames the log file at an interval that you specify in LogRotationPeriodMins. You can create a recurring start time such as "every Monday at 09:00" or a non-recurring start time such as "9 January, 2002, 09:00."

Use the following java.text.SimpleDateFormat format to specify a date and time: MM-dd-yyyy-k:mm:ss. For information about this format, refer to the J2EE Javadoc.

If the date that you specify has already past, then the day in week (E), hour in day (H), minute in hour (m) and second in minute (s) are used with the current date to recalculate a start time.
