Uniform distributed topics - configure message logging

Before you begin


After you create a uniform distributed topic, you can enable the logging of message life cycle information into a JMS message log file. A message life cycle is an external view of the basic events that a JMS message traverses through, such as message production, consumption, and removal. The content of the message log always includes message ID and correlation ID, but you can also configure information like message type and user properties.

To configure life cycle logging for messages on members of this distributed topic:

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
  2. In the Administration Console, navigate to the uniform distributed topic resource that you want to configure:
  3. Click the Configuration > Logging tab.
  4. On the Logging page:
    1. In Enable Message Logging, select whether to log information about the life cycle of messages on the members of this distributed topic.
    2. Select All Headers to include all JMS header fields in the log.
    3. Use Headers to include only a subset of JMS header fields in the log, by moving them from the Available to the Chosen column.
    4. Select All Properties to include all properties in the message log.
    5. Use Properties to include only a subset of properties in the log, by moving them from the Available to the Chosen column.
    6. In User-Defined Properties, specify any user-defined properties to include in the log.

    For more information about these fields, see Configuration Options.

  5. Save your changes:
  6. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
    Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
