Disabling SMF recording for WebSphere Application Server

This information describes how to disable SMF recording for WebSphere Application Server for z/OS.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have proper access to the administrative console.

About this task

SMF recording can be enabled for WebSphere Application Server, and for z/OS. The following steps describe how to disable SMF recording for WebSphere Application Server:

Procedure

  1. In the administrative console, click Servers > Application Servers > server_name.
  2. On the configuration page, click Server Infrastructure > Java and Process Management > Process Definition > Control > Custom Properties.
  3. To disable SMF type 120 records, set the following properties to false:
    • name = server_SMF_server_activity_enabled = 0 (or server_SMF_server_activity_enabled = false)
    • name = server_SMF_server_interval_enabled = 0 (or false)
    • name = server_SMF_container_activity_enabled = 0 (or false)
    • name = server_SMF_container_interval_enabled = 0 (or false)
    Alternatively, you could delete the SMF related properties. However, it will be easier for you to enable SMF recording later if you keep the properties in place and just change their values to false.
  4. Click OK or Apply.
  5. Save the changes and make sure a file sync is performed before restarting the servers.
  6. For the changes to take effect, restart the application server.

Results

You have successfully disabled SMF recording for WebSphere Application Server when SMF records of records type 120 are no longer being recorded.
