You can start or stop IBM® HTTP Server using the WebSphere® Application Server administrative console or using other methods depending on your platform.
You
can configure your operating system to allow the log file for the
IBM HTTP Server plug-in to
exceed the typical two gigabytes size limit. To enable this functionality,
add the USEPLUGINLARGEFILE environment variable to your operating
system configuration settings, and set it to true, before you start
the IBM HTTP Server. If you
do not add this environment variable to your operating system settings,
or if you set this environment variable to false, the log file is
limited to 2 gigabytes.
