Server Configuration - Log Applications

The Log Applications screen lists all the Application containers and associated Application objects supported by the current logging server.

Application containers provide a reference point through which the logging server can locate Application objects. Application containers must be included in this list for the logging server to locate their associated Application objects. Only the Application container in Logging Services is added to this list by default; any other Application containers must be added manually.

IMPORTANT: The logging server only scans these containers at startup. Therefore, if you make changes in the Log Applications screen (such as adding a new Application container, creating or editing an Application object, and so forth), you must restart the logging server to incorporate the changes. For more information on restarting the logging server, refer to the Novell Nsure Audit Administration Guide.

Application Container List

Container Name

Lists all Application containers currently supported by the logging server.

Click the plus icon beside any container to expand the list of Application objects in that container. Click the minus icon to collapse an expanded list.

Checkmark the box next to a container or object to select that container or object. Checkmark the box in the list heading (next to Container Name) to select all containers in the list.

 

Status

The Status column indicates whether an Application object is enabled or disabled .

By default, all Application objects are enabled. This means that the logging server loads the Application object’s configuration in memory at startup. If an Application object is disabled, the logging server does not load that object’s configuration in memory at startup.

To change an Application object's status, modify the object's Status property. For more information, see Configuring Application Objects.

 

Add Container

Adds an existing Application container to the logging server's list of supported containers. Adding a container means that the logging server scans that container for Application objects at startup.

IMPORTANT: The logging server only scans Application containers at startup. Therefore, if you add a container, you must restart the server for the change to take effect.

IMPORTANT: You cannot create an Application container in this dialog; you can only add existing containers to the logging server's list of supported containers. For information on creating containers, see the iManager online help.

For more information on adding an Application container, see Adding and Removing Log Application Containers.

 

Remove Container

Removes the selected Application container from the logging server's list of supported containers. Removing a container means that the logging server no longer scans that container for Application objects at startup.

Removing an Application container from the list does not delete the container or any of its associated objects.

IMPORTANT: The logging server only scans Application containers at startup. Therefore, if you remove a container, you must restart the server for the change to take effect.

IMPORTANT: You cannot delete an Application container in this dialog; you can only remove the container from the logging server's list of supported containers. For information on deleting containers, see the iManager online help.

 

New Log Application

Creates a new Application object in the selected container.

IMPORTANT: The logging server only scans Application containers for Application objects at startup. Therefore, if you create a new Application object, you must restart the logging server for the change to take effect.

For more information on creating Application objects, see Creating and Configuring Application Objects.

 

Edit Log Application

Allows you to modify the selected Channel object's configuration.

IMPORTANT: The logging server only scans Application containers for Application objects at startup. Therefore, if you edit an Application object, you must restart the logging server for the change to take effect.

For more information on editing Application objects, see Configuring Application Objects.

 

Delete Log Application

Deletes the selected Application object. Deleting an Application object completely removes the object from the system.

IMPORTANT: The logging server only scans Application containers for Application objects at startup. Therefore, if you delete an Application object, you must restart the logging server for the change to take effect.
