Hi,
Need some help, on Log File Rotation.
Does Websphere have a facility to rotate the standard out log file. (My environment is Webpshere 4.0.6, on Sun Solaris 8, Ready to upgrade this environment to 4.0.7, in few days).
Stdout.log file is getting huge over time, and the environment is live. We need to rotate the log file, for all practical reasons.
We have used a UNIX script to copy the file and then make the file size 0, but there is loss of some info between the copy and reducing the file size. There could be critical info that could be lost in this fraction of time. We would like to avoid the same.
Can anyone please point out an existing facility in Websphere to rotate the log file, or if anyone has followed a different solution, can you please share it with me.
Regards
Naveen Kumar
