Log Pool Aliases

The logging of a profile job can be done in a separate Log Pool. Very login-intensive profiles, for example, can use their own Log Pool. By default, the Log Pool STANDARD is assigned to a profile.

You can then select a specific Log Pool in the Control Center to view those logs.

More Log Pools can be added via the context menu.

(1) The name of the Log Pool.

(2) The retention period of the logs (in table dw_log_sum) in days for this Log Pool. Note: The value -1 is allowed. In that case, the default value from parameter retainDaysForStatistic in configuration file ./etc/startup.xml is used at runtime. See also section Retention Periods of Backup Files and Logs.

(3) Defines whether the logs of this Log Pool should also be replicated for the Web Monitor (and therefore be visible there). Note: This setting only works if there is any replication going on at all! If the Web Monitor does not use its own database schema but instead uses the logAlias of Lobster_data, the replication cannot be prevented, since it does not take place anyway. For technical details see section Installation of the Web Monitor (specifically subsection Installation Without DMZ).

Alternatively, you can manually create an additional Log Pool in the configuration file ./etc/startup.xml.
