Configuring SDDC Content Under Microsoft Windows
The Microsoft Windows Siebel Diagnostic Data Collector (SDDC) can be configured to modify or enhance the amount of information collected during an SDDC execution. A Microsoft Windows SDDC configuration file is required by SDDC to modify any configurations to the output. The configuration file is referenced during the SDDC execution. By default, a configuration file is not included with the SDDC utility. It is recommended that you contact Oracle Global Customer Support before using configuration files by creating a service request (SR) on My Oracle Support. Oracle Global Customer Support provides configuration files based on the specific information you require. For information about SDDC configurations under UNIX, see Configuring SDDC Content Under UNIX. The SDDC configuration file is divided into sections that can be used to configure the type of information and log files collected by the utility. Edit the configuration file with a text editor. Table 40 provides the SDDC configuration file parameters.

[Main] |
OutputDirectory |
Specifies the directory location for the creation of the SDDC directory and output files. |
CollectLog |
Specifies whether log files are collected. |
CollectLogArchive |
Specifies whether log archive files are collected. |
CollectCrash |
Specifies whether failure files are collected. |
CollectStderrFiles |
Specifies whether standard error files are collected. |
CollectDump |
Specifies whether back-up system files are collected. |
CollectAssert |
Specifies whether assert and prefer files are collected. |

[StderrFiles] |
StartDate |
Specifies the start date for a range of standard error files to collect. |
EndDate |
Specifies the end date for a range of standard error files to collect. |
MatchingFiles |
Specifies the standard error file extensions to collect. |
[ProcessDump] |
StartDate |

EndDate |
Specifies the end date for a range of dump files to collect. |
MatchingFiles |
Specifies the dump file extensions to collect. |
[AssertFiles] |
StartDate |
Specifies the start date for a range of assert files to collect. |
EndDate |

MatchingFiles |
Specifies the assert file extensions to collect. |
[LogFiles] |
StartDate |
Specifies the start date for a range of log files to collect. |
EndDate |
Specifies the end date for a range of log files to collect. |
MatchingFiles |
Specifies the log file extensions to collect. You can specify the collection of Siebel Application Response Measurement (Siebel ARM) files in this section by identifying the file extension SARM (for example, *.sarm ). |
[LogArchive] |
NumArchives |
Specifies that SDDC collects log archive files from the NumArchives directory. |
MatchingArchiveDir |
Specifies the archive directories for collection. |
[SiebelServer] |
LogDir |
Specifies the Siebel Server log directory in the case of not being able to connect to the Siebel Gateway Name Server. |
LogArchiveDir |
Specifies the Siebel Server log archive directory in the case of not being able to connect to the Siebel Gateway Name Server. |
[GatewayServer] |
LogDir |
Specifies the Siebel Gateway Name Server in the case the directory name is different than the default. |
[WebServer] |
SiebelRoot |
Specifies the Siebel Server root directory in the case the directory name is different than the default. |
About SDDC Parameter Configuration
The StartDate, EndDate, and MatchingFiles parameters, which appear in several Siebel Diagnostic Data Collector (SDDC) configuration file sections, have common configuration details as shown in Table 41.
Table 41. Common Parameter Configuration Details
|
|
StartDate, EndDate |
Set these parameters to specify collection of data between the two dates. If StartDate and EndDate are set, then do not set the MaxNumFiles parameter. Configure the dates in the following format: dd-Month_Acronym-yyyy
where:
- dd is the integer of the date ranging from 01 to 31.
- Month_Acronym is the three-letter month acronym as follows: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec.
- yyyy is the integer of the year.
Another valid configuration selection for the StartDate and EndDate parameters is NONE. If NONE is entered for StartDate and a valid date is entered for EndDate, then files prior to the end date are collected. If NONE is entered for EndDate and a valid date is entered forStartDate, then files from the start date to the current date are collected. |
MatchingFiles |
Set this parameter to collect multiple file formats using a comma-delimited list. Wildcard characters are also applicable. For example, to collect files containing siebmtsh in the filename with the extension .dmp and files of the type siebmtshmw5409.dmp, enter: MatchingFiles=siebmtsh*.dmp,siebmtshmw5409.dmp
