• When you stop the CIM Extension, the management server is unable to gather information
about this host.
Rolling Over the Logs
The logging information for the CIM Extension is contained primarily in the cxws.log file, created by
default in the <Installation_directory>/tools directory.The cxws.log file rolls over once it
becomes more than 100 MB. The information in cxws.log is moved to cxws.log.1. When the logs
roll over again, cxws.log.1 is renamed to cxws.log.2 and the information that is in cxws.log is
moved to cxws.log.1. The numbering for the files continues sequentially, for example, cxws.log.3,
with there being a maximum of three backup logs.
• cxws.log - contains the latest logging information
• cxws.log.1 - contains logging information that was previously in cxws.log
• cxws.log.2 - contains logging information that was previously in cxws.log.1
• cxws.log.3 - contains logging information that was previously in cxws.log.2
The cxws.out file contains some logging information, such as the CIM Extension starting, which is
recorded in case something unexpected happens with the Java Virtual Machine. The CIM Extension
appends the cxws.out file and rolls it over.
