pdm_log4j_config Utility--Modify the log4j properties File

The pdm_log4j_config.pl utility lets you configure the log4j properties file of CA SDM, web components, PDM_RPC, Support Automation, Rest, and CMDB Visualizer. Execute the utility batch script that is based on your environment. For Windows, execute pdm_log4j_config from the command line. For UNIX, execute the pdm_log4j_config.sh file.

This command has the following format:

pdm_log4j_config -f <component> -d
pdm_log4j_config -h
pdm_log4j_config -f <component>  [-a | -n <name>] [-l <log level>] [I <max # of log files>] [-s <max size of log files>] [-t <log level threshold>]

-f

Specifies the log4j configuration of CA SDM or the component of CA SDM that you want to change. Enter one of the following values:

SDM_WEB, SDM_RPC, REST, SA, or Viz.

Note: Use the mandatory option along with the other options.

-d

Displays the current log4j.properties configuration.

-h

Displays help for the utility.

-a

Completes all changes to log4j.properties globally.

-n

Specifies that you only want to modify a specific class or package name.

Specify a specific class name, such as bop_logging, or a complete package name, such as com.ca.ServicePlus.

Note: Specify the -a or -n option.
