Edit Log Rotation

Sun ONE Application Server provides two facilities for log rotation; internal daemon log rotation and scheduler based log rotation. On Solaris platforms, these facilities are not enabled by default since the use of the Solaris log management utility, logadm, is encouraged. For the selected log rotation facility, you can configure the log rotation time and interval from this page

The following table describes the fields and buttons on the page. The left column lists the fields and buttons; the right column describes the functionality.
