How to configure the log4j2.properties file

Go to <top level>/Sovos-S4Hana- JcoServer/configuration to find the log4j2.properties file. By default, the name of the logging file for the Adapter is sovosJcoServer.log.

The following image shows the default contents of the log4j2.properties file:

 

The following table lists the properties that can be configured in the log4j2.properties file:

Parameter Description Property to Edit Default
<Loglevel> Determines how much data is logged. filter.threshold.level logger.rolling.level ERROR
<Nameoflog file> The name of the files in which log content is stored. property.filename sovosJcoServer.log
<Max file size> Determines how large a file can become before a new file is created. appender.rolling.policies. size.size 50MB
<Max number of files> Determines how many files will be stored. If the maximum number or file size is reached, the oldest files will be zipped with a timestamp to keep track of all the logs. appender.rolling.strategy. max 10 (for a total of 10 files)

sovosJcoServer.log always contains the latest file. Files with higher numbers contain earlier content.

Don’t modify any other properties in the log4j2.properties file.
