Trace Files and Log Files 

When you use ICF for communications, security-relevant data can be recorded in trace files. You must handle access to these trace files as restrictively as possible.

In transaction SICF (Edit ® Traces), you can activate, deactivate, and display traces for individual services.

The following trace files can contain security-relevant data:

 

Work Process Traces

·        dev_w<n>

ICM Trace

·        dev_icm<n>

Message Server Trace

·        dev_ms

Web Dispatcher Trace

·        dev_wdisp

Further Information

The administrator also has the option of granting or refusing access to ICF traces:

·        Locking/Unlocking Access to ICF Trace Functions
