Configuration of the BizTalk Server Log Agent

Enable centralized logging from all your BizTalk Server groups (even from different BizTalk Server versions)

The Nodinite BizTalk Server Logging Agent has support for logging from one or more BizTalk Server Groups like PROD and TEST (or from 2 or more PROD groups and so on).

Each BizTalk Server groups is managed by a unique Log Agent Instance with the following properties:

  • Name - the user-friendly name of the Log Agent (Mandatory)
  • Log Agent Value Id - The unique id for the Log Agent (Mandatory)

NOTE: You should never change the id once set since this may seriously disrupt log view settings and more

  • Description - the user-friendly description of the Log Agent (Optional)

  • Web Site - A link to an external web site with additional information about the Log Agent (optional)

For each BizTalk Server group, information about the Configuration (BizTalkMgmtDB) database and the Tracking (BizTalkDTADb) database must be configured.
