Disabling the logging of messages to the output console

This procedure describes the steps to disable the logging of the messages about the Launcher and associated map events to the standard output console.

Use this procedure when you are running the SNMP Agent on UNIX operating systems with tracing enabled, and you do not want the SNMP Agent to output the log information to the output console.

To disable the logging of messages to the output console, modify the logging.properties file in the following way:

  1. Open the logging.properties file, which is located under the java/lib subdirectory of the path where IBM Transformation Extender is installed.
  2. Set the following entry to OFF and then save the file:
    java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = OFF

When you run the SNMP Agent with the java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level set to OFF, the log information is no longer output to the console screen; it is only output to the log file.
