Note: The effect of switching logging on is that the service's request and response blocks are written to a diagnostics file each
time the service is invoked. This file is stored in the server's system directory, which defaults to
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Micro Focus User\Visual COBOL\WORKAREA
/es-name
where
es-name is the name of the enterprise server. The file is named
casdumpa.rec (or it might be named
casdumpb.rec if you specified a maximum diagnostics file size on the Edit Server page).
You can format and view the information from the
Edit Server >
Diagnostics >
ES Console page. The client request is shown in a block named user-storage-type under the part of the dump entitled CAS-REQ. The server
response is shown in a similar block under the title CAS-RESP.
Only switch logging on if you need diagnostics as it degrades performance.
