SLFJ Logging
BigMemory Max uses the SLF4J logging facade, so you can plug in your own logging framework. The following information pertains to Ehcache logging. For information about SLF4J in general, refer to the SLF4J website.
With SLF4J, users must choose a concrete logging implementation at deploy time. The options include Maven and the download kit.
Note:
In respect of considerations concerning EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), be aware that in cases of incorrect login procedure or other error scenarios, LDAP username and IP address may be logged in the tmc-security log file. Amongst other events, such data may be collected for reasons of configuring messages based on such logs.

Concrete Logging Implementation use in the Download Kit
