Fix Recommendation

Navigate to and open /usr/local/horizon/conf/saas-log4j.properties.

Configure the vIDM policy log file with the following lines:

log4j.appender.rollingFile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.rollingFile.MaxFileSize=50MB
log4j.appender.rollingFile.MaxBackupIndex=7
log4j.appender.rollingFile.Encoding=UTF-8
log4j.appender.rollingFile.file=/opt/vmware/horizon/workspace/logs/horizon.log
log4j.appender.rollingFile.append=true
log4j.appender.rollingFile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.rollingFile.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} %-5p (%t) [%X{orgId};%X{userId};%X{ip}] %c - %m%n

Check Contents
