How to Search Archived Event Store Files?

Symptom:

I want to search archived the Event Store files for event searches that are not time-scoped.

Solution:

To search archived the Event Store files, configure the EventManager-wrapper.conf file.

Follow these steps:

  1. Open the SOI_HOME\jsw\conf\EventManager-wrapper.conf file.
  2. Add the following Java define as necessary or change its default value in the Java Additional Parameters section, and save and close the file:
    EQUERY_UNZIP_ARCHIVE=

    Determines whether to unzip and search the archived Event Store files for event searches that are not time-scoped. Enter 1 to search archived files. The value 0 implies that you do not want to search archived files.

    Default: 0

    Preface the parameter with the correct additional Java parameter syntax and the appropriate sequential number, as shown in the following example:

    wrapper.java.additional.2=-DEQUERY_UNZIP_ARCHIVE=1
    
  3. Restart the CA SAM Event Management service.

    Subsequent event searches use the configured settings.
