Enabling the GBMS Repository Log
By default, the repository log is disabled for a GBMS repository.
To keep a history of the actions performed on the repository after dispatch, you must activate the repository log.
*Enabling the repository log generates a large volume of objects. This volume can adversely affect HOPEX performance, particularly at dispatches. It is not recommended with a GBMS repository.
To enable the repository log:
1. Open the Properties dialog box of the repository.
The repository properties dialog box opens.
2. Click Repository Log line and select Enabled.
The repository log is enabled.
The repository log lists all modifications made in the repository. It gives users a better understanding of actions dispatched in the repository from private workspaces.
Each time an action is executed, an occurrence of Change Item is created.
*A ChangeItem is a MetaClass corresponding to a change made in a HOPEX repository.
A repository log comprises HOPEX occurrences. These occurrences can be handled using MEGA APIs.
