Modify the Log File Refresh Interval Manually

Administrators can modify how often CA SDM monitors the log4j.properties file for changes. By default, the refresh interval is set to 60 seconds. CA SDM components including SDM Servlets, PDM_RPC, Support Automation, CMDB Visualizer, and REST use log4j for logging.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the following directory on the CA SDM server:

   NX_ROOT
   

2. Open the NX.env file for editing.
3. Modify the NX_LOG4J_REFRESH_INTERVAL variable with a value in milliseconds.

   Note: If you enter a negative or nonnumeric value, the value defaults to 60 seconds.

4. Save the NX.env file.
