Manager Configurations 7
Key Application Manager functionality can be configured with the Application Manager virtual appliance
interface or with a combination of interfaces.
When you install Application Manager, the virtual appliance leads you through a configuration wizard. After
you perform that initial configuration, you can use the virtual appliance interface and other interfaces for
further configuration. Perform the configuration tasks that apply to your deployment.

Configure Application Manager for Logging
You can configure logs in the Application Manager virtual appliance interface. You configure Web server
logging behavior in the /usr/local/horizon/conf/log4j.properties file. To store logging information
externally, you can configure an external syslog server.
By default, Application Manager logs Web-server related information as follows:
n
Web server log file: /opt/vmware/horizon/horizoninstance/logs/horizon.log.
You can edit the log configuration files to control where the Connector stores the log information.

Web server logs rotate with a default size of 50MB as
configured in the log4j.properties file. By default, these
logs are stored
in
/opt/vmware/horizon/horizoninstance/logs/horizon
.log. For more details about the Web server logging behavior,
see the log4j.properties file. The Web server logging
behavior is preconfigured and might not require any further
configuration.
syslog /etc/syslog-
ng/syslog-ng.conf
Configure the syslog-ng file to direct program logs to your
external syslog server.
The best practice is to store program logs in an external syslog server.
For more information about editing log4j files, see Apache documentation on Apache Logging Services.
