Customizing a Web Services Adapter (for OpenEdge SOAP Web Services) log file monitor
This section describes how to customize a Web Services Adapter (for OpenEdge SOAP Web Services) log file monitor.
To customize a Web Services Adapter (for OpenEdge SOAP Web Services) log file monitor:
1. From the grid frame for Resources, click the Edit icon to display the details page for the Web Services Adapter (for OpenEdge SOAP Web Services) broker instance whose log file monitor you want to customize. See Accessing OpenEdge Management resource information.
2. Click Log File Monitor on the Web Services Adapter Detailspage. The Log File Monitor summary monitoring page appears.

Click Edit at the top of the page to change the description of the log file monitor.
Click Log File Viewer at the top of the page to view the contents of the log file monitor.
Note: OpenEdge Management prevents the assignment of schedules that share days or times that overlap. For example, if you have a Default_Schedule set up for a resource monitor, you cannot set up an additional plan because the Default_Schedule is defined for 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. You must modify or remove the Default_Schedule to set up additional plans.
4. To add individual rules, click Edit within the monitoring plans section to view the edit page for the log file monitor.
5. Click Add Rule under the Rules selected for this plan section of the monitoring plan page. You can add a rule that is already defined and/or create a new rule.
