Log Services

A log service is a TIBCO ActiveMatrix application that offers logging services.

The log service application com.tibco.amx.commonlogging.logservice.app is deployed in the environment SystemEnvironment on SystemNode, the node that runs the Administrator server.

A log service receives log entries sent to a JMS destination and stores the entries in a database.

A log service is created when you create an Administrator server. The log service uses the same Enterprise Message Service server for receiving log messages as the Administrator server uses for receiving notification messages. You can configure a log service to use the Enterprise Message Service server of your choice. You can choose to store log data in the same database used by Administrator server or use another database. For details, see the installation manual for your product.

Note: If the connection to the EMS server is lost, logservice messages and payload service data is stored in the folder CONFIG_HOME/tibcohost/Admin-enterpriseName-serverName/data_3.2._x/nodes/nodeName/work/clrecovery. The logservice messages and payload service data is processed when the connection to the EMS server is restored.
