Manual Setup (Config File)

The EtherSensor LotusTXN service configuration is defined in the lotustxn.xml file, located in the common configuration directory, [INSTALLDIR]\config.

A sample lotustxn.xml configuration file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LotusTXNConfig version="1.0">
<Capture>
 
 <Directory
  enabled="true"
  logstyle="linear"
  start="currentfile"
  id="logdir-1"
  path="\\10.31.5.16\logdir">
  <UserName>XFw5OUpKPj4=</UserName>
  <UserPassword>OTkLCzg4DAw=</UserPassword>
 </Directory>
 
 <Directory
  enabled="true"
  logstyle="circular"
  start="firstfile"
  id="logdir-2"
  path="D:\lotus\data\logdir">
  <UserName>Cg46PgIGPjoHAzs/fno4PHx4SEwOCjQwcHQ=</UserName>
  <UserPassword>V1cxMVZWMzNGRiAg</UserPassword>
 </Directory>
 
</Capture>
</LotusTXNConfig>

LotusTXNConfig tag

This is the root tag of the service configuration. The version attribute specifies the configuration version.

Capture tag

Defines a block indicating the directories being monitored.

Directory tag

This tag is nested within the Capture tag. It specifies the settings of the directory being monitored. The enabled attribute specifies the directory activity status. If it is set to false, then the directory is not used in data processing.

The logstyle attribute specifies the style for Lotus Notes transaction logging. Possible values of this attribute are:

linear - linear logging;

circular - circular logging.

For more information, please refer to the documentation on Lotus Notes.

The start attribute specifies the starting point for message capture. If it is set to firstfile, then the messages will be extracted from the first Lotus Notes Transaction Log file. If it is set to currentfile, then the messages will be extracted from the current Lotus Notes Transaction Log file.

The id attribute defines the ID of the directory being monitored. It is used in message analysis to determine the directory from which messages have been received.

The path attribute defines the full path to the directory where Lotus Notes Transaction Log files are stored.

UserName tag

This tag is nested within the Directory tag. It defines the Windows username for access to the transaction directory. The value should be in UPN (user principal name) format. Example: administrator@example.com, where administrator is the username and example.com is the user's domain. If this parameter is not specified, the account from which EtherSensor LotusTXN service is started is used to access the transaction log files. Note that when Microolap EtherSensor is installed, all services are started with the SYSTEM user privileges.

UserPassword tag

This tag is nested within the Directory tag. It defines the user password for access to the transaction directory.
