Specifying Whether to Queue Server Log Entries
By default, Integration Server queues log entries written by its facilities in memory, then uses a background thread to write them to the server log. Because only one facility can write to the server log at one time, queuing the entries improves performance by making writing asynchronous. However, if Integration Server shuts down abnormally, all log entries in the queue will be lost. For better quality of service, do not queue the entries. However, each facility will have to wait as long as necessary to write its entry to the server log, so Integration Server performance might be affected.
The value of watt.server.log.queued determines whether Integration Server queues server log entries. Set this parameter to true if you want Integration Server to queue server log entries. Set this parameter to false if you do not want Integration Server to queue server log entries.
Note:
To change the number of entries allowed in the server log queue, use the watt.server.serverlogQueueSize parameter. The default size is 8192.
