Configuring the Script adapter

Adapter type: ro-adapter-script_vv.rr.nn

Default adapter name: ScriptAdapter

To configure the Script adapter, see Configuring base adapters.

The following table describes the adapter configuration elements for the Script adapter that you can specify by using the form view, XML view, or both. You cannot use the form view to configure elements and attributes that do not have an entry in the "UI label" column.

Enabling custom logging

To enable custom logging for the adapter, you must specify a log file name. You can also provide additional parameters for logging.

• Log File Name: Provide a name for the log file.
  This file will be stored in the AO_HOME/tomcat/logs directory. If Log File Max Backup Index value is greater than 0, the log file name is suffixed with the backup index. For example, if the parameter value is a.log, backup log files will have names, such as a.log.1, a.log.2.
• Log File Size: Specify a size limit for the log file. 
  If the value specified for Log File Max Backup Index is greater than 0, when the specified size is reached, the current file is renamed with the suffix .1. Otherwise, the log file will be reset and over-written. The default value is 10MB. The available units are KiloBytes (KB), MegaBytes (MB) or GigaBytes (GB).
• Log File Max Backup Index: Enter the maximum number of backup files allowed. The default value is 10.
• Log File Append: Select this option to append new log information to the existing information in the file. If unselected, the file will be overwritten with new log information.

• Log Level: Enter the logging level using one of the following choices:

  Logging level	Description
  DEBUG	The most detailed logging level; logs low-level messages, normal execution, recoverable erroneous conditions, and unrecoverable erroneous conditions
  INFO (default)	Logs normal execution, recoverable erroneous conditions, and unrecoverable erroneous conditions
  WARN	Logs recoverable erroneous conditions and unrecoverable erroneous conditions
  ERROR	The least detailed logging level; logs only error conditions that are not usually recoverable
