Control Activity Log Exit Service (com.ibi.agents.XDXalogControlAgent)

Syntax:

com.ibi.agents.XDXalogControlAgent

iIT Service Object:

xalog: Activity Log Control

contol: Activity Log Control

Description:

Activity log exits accept messages pertaining to activities in the server, and report these activities to some external media. A common exit is the BAMActivityProvider. Other exits relate to SNMP, time tracking, and so on. The exits are defined and deployed for the configuration, and may initially be defined as being in an active or inactive state. Active state refers, as in all components, to whether the exit is initialized and started automatically when the server is initialized.

These exits can be configured for the server in the Activity Facility section of the iSM Administration Console.

This service can be used in a process flow to start or stop the named activity log exit. You might use this, for example, in a BAM error recovery flow to restart the exit that has been stopped due to a database error.

Parameters:

Parameter	Description
Exit	The name of the Activity Facility exit to be controlled. This exit must be available.
Action	Determines the action to be taken. Select one of the following actions from the drop-down list: start stop
Call at EOS?	In a streaming environment, EOS (End of Stream) is the short message that is sent after the last document, which signifies the EOS. This parameter determines whether this service should be called for the EOS message. The default value is false.
