Configure Event Search Settings

You can configure whether to search archived Event Store files and how many groups to return in search results.

Follow these steps:

  1. Open the SOI_HOME/tomcat/lib/eventManagerClientConfig.xml file and change the value of the following property if necessary:
    EQUERY_UNZIP_ARCHIVE=

    Determines whether to unzip and search archived Event Store files for event searches that are not time scoped. Enter 1 to search archived files or 0 to never search archived files.

    Default: 0

  2. Open the SOI_HOME/jsw/conf/EventManager-wrapper.conf file in a text editor and change the value of the following properties if necessary:
    EQUERY_MAX_QGROUP=

    Determines the maximum number of groups to return in search results.

    Default: 10

    EQUERY_MAX_RETCOUNT=

    Defines the maximum amount of events returned by a search per connector multiplied by 1000. For example, the default value of 25 returns a maximum of 25,000 events from a search on a connector.

    Default: 25

  3. Restart the CA SAM Application Server service.

    Subsequent event searches use the configured settings.
