Customizing an AppServer Internet Adapter log file monitor
The following procedure describes how to customize an AIA 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.
