HP Systems Insight Manager 5.2 Update 2 Technical Reference Guide

a task running is completed. However, after one hour exceeding the maximum file size, if the task is not
finished, the audit log file rolls over to another file.
CAUTION: Change the queue size only with extreme care. If the queue is set too high, the log manager
consumes too much system memory.
Changes made to the log.properties file do not take effect until the log manager daemon is restarted.
For Windows, restart HP SIM service. For Linux and HP-UX, restart the log manager.
NOTE: By default, for Linux and HP-UX, the path for the log file is set to /var/opt/mx/logs. This path
can be configured by editing the LOG value in the /etc/opt/mx/config/path.properties file. If
this properties file does not exist, create it. For Windows, the default location is the logs subdirectory of
the directory where the product was installed.

Properties for globalsettings.props file
The globalsettings.props has many configurable properties which control how HP Systems Insight
Manager (HP SIM) functions.
WARNING! Changes to these settings should only be done by advanced users that have tested this in a
non-production manner in their environment. Many parameters can be changed that could potentially
adversely affect the functioning of HP SIM.
HP recommends using the mxglobalsettings command to view and modify the globalsettings.props
property values. This command can display settings or modify their values and reduces the risks of editing
the file by hand.
For example, to verify the ip_pint_timeout setting, enter the following from the command line interface (CLI):
mxglobalsettings -ld ip_ping_timeout
The following is displayed:
ip_ping_timeout = 3
To modify the ip_ping_timeout setting, enter the following from the command line interface (CLI):
mxglobalsettings -s ip_ping_timeout=4
NOTE: Depending on the settting, a restart of HP SIM might be required for changes to take effect.
See the HP SIM 5.2 Command Line Interface Reference Guide at http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/
servers/management/hpsim/infolibrary.html for additional information on using the mxglobalsettings
command.
