Control-M/EM API logging

Control‑M/EM API logs actions, exceptions, and warnings. The logging mechanism uses the Log4J library from the Jakarta Java Solutions project. The manifest file located at emapi-version\classes\log4j-1.2.8.jar indicates which version of Log4J is in use.

The Control‑M/EM API logging default behavior has the following characteristics:

• The Control‑M/EM API logs only errors (priority level: ERROR).
• The maximum log file size is 50 KB.
• The Control‑M/EM API saves the last two completed logs.
• Log files are rolling, not cyclical.

You can modify the logging procedures if you want to enable greater control over logging behavior. See Modifying logging behavior and the Log4J documentation.
