Changing peers


The peer configuration attributes that you can change are:

  • Description
  • Type (APs and LAPs only)

    Note

    Although Grid Manager allows you to change the peer type between AP and LAP, BMC Software recommends that you do not change the peer type after it has been configured.

  • Whether the peer is a synchronization point for uploading process metrics
  • Whether the peer is a SOAP endpoint
  • Which adapters are enabled
  • Logging configuration (if the peer is running)

To change a peer

  1. In the Grid Manager application, select the Manage tab, and then select the Peers tab.
  2. Select a peer; then click the Edit selected Peer icon.
  3. Make any changes to the peer configuration; then click OK.

Peer logging levels

The logging level applies to the grid.log and the logging levels control the component activity information that is logged. Some basic logging information may appear in the log regardless of the logging level.

Logging level

Description

DEBUG

The most detailed logging level; logs low-level messages, normal execution, recoverable erroneous conditions, and unrecoverable erroneous conditions

INFO

Logs normal execution, recoverable erroneous conditions, and unrecoverable erroneous conditions

WARN (default)

Logs recoverable erroneous conditions and unrecoverable erroneous conditions

ERROR

The least detailed logging level; logs only error conditions that are not usually recoverable

OFF

Turns off component activity logging on the grid

The grid log is located in the AO_HOME/tomcat/logs/grid.log file on each peer.
