By default, TimeXtender Orchestration and Data Quality creates a few types of log files which are by default put under C:\Program Files\exMon\Logs. To move log file location, for example to a specific log drive, follow directions under each section.
Note: You will need to follow these directions on each server running TimeXtender Orchestration and Data Quality.
Execution Agent
TimeXtender Orchestration and Data Quality writes a separate log file to disk for each execution of packages, queries, processes, object groups and reports.
To change the location of these log files, follow these steps:
- Open C:\Program Files\exMon\Bin\ExpectusConfig.config in a text editor
- Locate the LogFile property ending with epcmd_log.txt
- Change the directory to your new location making sure it still ends with epcmd_log.txt
- Save the file
All new executions will save logs to the new location.
Execution Agent Service
All remote executions are logged in a single file, ExpectusCommandWs.xml and are by default located at C:\Program Files\Logs
To change the location of this log file, follow these steps:
- Open C:\Program Files\exMon\exMon\CommandService\log4net.config in a text editor
- Locate and change <file value="..." />
- Open Services in Windows (Start > Run: Services.msc)
- Right-click exMon Command Service and select Restart
All-new remote execution will save logs to the new location.
