Changing the Storage Directory for Integration Gateway Transaction Logs

Log files are written to the directory specified in the ig.transactionLog.directory property in the integrationGateway.properties file. By default this value is set to the path of the current gateway directory.

When the default directory location is specified, you can access the logs manually in the file system, however, the log files are not accessible in PIA using the View Gateway Log links on the Asynchronous Details page and the Synchronous Details page. You must change the directory location to a public-facing directory, such as <PIA_HOME>/peoplesoft/PSIGW.war/, or another location of your choosing.

Important:

Before you change the write location of the gateway logging data consider potential security issues that doing so may present.

To change the storage directory for integration gateway transaction log files:

  1. Create a new directory for storing the log files on the system.

  2. Set the ig.transactionLog.directory property in the integrationGateway.properties file to the new storage location.

    See Integration Broker Administration: Accessing Gateway Setup Properties

    This property is located in the Transaction Logging section of the file.

  3. Set the new directory location in the Monitor Setup Options page in the PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture.

    1. Access the Monitor Setup Options page (PeopleTools, and then Integration Broker, and then Service Operations Monitor, and then Administration, and then Monitor Setup Options.)

    2. In the Gateway Logging URL field enter the path or URL to the new storage directory.

    3. Click the Save button.
