Process Configuration Files

Oracle 9iFS domain controllers and nodes obtain configuration information from configuration files in the IFS_HOME of the host computer. This appendix describes the contents of:

• DomainController.def

• Node.def

• HttpNode.def

DomainController.def

The Oracle 9iFS domain controller obtains configuration information from DomainController.def, located in $ORACLE_HOME/9ifs/settings. Edit this text file to change the following parameters:

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.LogFilename. The absolute path to the domain controller's log file. Optional. If not specified, logs are generated to the console (stdout).

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.OverwriteLog. Whether any existing log file is overwritten each time the domain controller starts. Optional; defaults to false.

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.LogLevel. The verbosity of the domain controller log. Optional. Must be one of the following values:
  • 0 = disabled (no logging)

  • 2 = low (error conditions only)

  • 4 = medium (normal operation; default)

  • 6 = high (debug information)

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.RemoterLogLevel. The verbosity of the inter-process communication log. Optional. Must be one of the following values:
  • 0 = disabled (no logging)

  • 2 = low (error conditions only; default)

  • 4 = medium (normal operation)

  • 6 = high (debug information)

Do not change any of the following parameters:

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.ServiceName

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.CheckNodesPeriod

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.Locator

• IFS.DOMAIN.DOMAINCONTROLLER.Name

Notes

Oracle does not recommend changing the value of any parameter not listed above.You must restart the domain controller for changes to take effect.

Node.def

Nodes not running on the HTTP Server, powered by Apache, obtain configuration information from Node.def, located in $ORACLE_HOME/ifs<version>/settings. Edit this text file to change the following parameters:

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.LogFilename. The absolute path to the node's log file. Optional. If not specified, logs are generated to the console (stdout).

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.OverwriteLog. Whether any existing log file is overwritten each time the node starts. Optional; defaults to false.

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.LogLevel. The verbosity of the node log. Optional. Must be one of the following values:
  • 0 = disabled (no logging)

  • 2 = low (error conditions only)

  • 4 = medium (normal operation; default)

  • 6 = high (debug information)

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.RemoterLogLevel. The verbosity of the inter-process communication log. Optional. Must be one of the following values:
  • 0 = disabled (no logging)

  • 2 = low (error conditions only; default)

  • 4 = medium (normal operation)

  • 6 = high (debug information)

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.Guarded. Whether the node's guardian runs as a separate process. Optional; defaults to true.

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.JavaCommand. For guarded nodes, the command issued by the node guardian to create a node manager process. Optional; defaults to "java". Edit the value of this parameter to specify command-line arguments for the Java VM, such as "java -mx64M" to increase the maximum size of the Java VM's heap.

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.ManagerLocator. This is the locator for the node manager. Do not edit this parameter.

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.GuardianLocator.This is the locator for the node guardian. Do not edit this parameter.

Notes

Oracle does not recommend changing the value of any parameter not listed above.You must restart the node for changes to take effect.

HttpNode.def

Nodes that run through the Oracle 9iFS servlet framework receive their configuration information from the file HttpNode.def, located in $ORACLE_HOME/9ifs/settings. The parameters for the HttpNode.def are the same as that for the Node.def, except for the following parameters that do not exist:

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.OverwriteLog

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.LogFilename

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.Guarded

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.JavaCommand

Edit HttpNode.def to change the following parameters:

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.LogLevel. The verbosity of the node log. Optional. Must be one of the following values:
  • 0 = disabled (no logging)

  • 2 = low (error conditions only)

  • 4 = medium (normal operation; default)

  • 6 = high (debug information)

• IFS.DOMAIN.NODE.RemoterLogLevel. The verbosity of the inter-process communication log. Optional. Must be one of the following values:
  • 0 = disabled (no logging)

  • 2 = low (error conditions only; default)

  • 4 = medium (normal operation)

  • 6 = high (debug information)

Notes

Oracle does not recommend changing the value of any parameter not listed above.You must restart the HTTP Server for changes to take effect.
