6. Specify the engine databa se tables (Current st ate and/or History lo g) for which
you want to log information. If you write to history log tables, specify the
information to log.
Current state This setting determines whether the engine writes information
about the current state of all sessions, processes, and process components to
the current state tables (see Appendix B, “Engine Database Schema”). You
cannot recover an engine or support failover of an engine unit unless you
enable the Current state option.
History log This setting determines which information, if any, the engine
logs about each state change in sessions, processes, and process components to
the history log tables (see Appendix B, “Engine Database Schema”). The
history log tables are used for obtaining historical information about process
execution. The history log can grow quite large, so set logging selectively. You
may have to monitor, back up, and flush the history log tables on a regular
basis. For more information, see “Managing an Engine Database” on page 124.
NOTE The registration tables are always enabled for registering
process definitions, assignment rule dictionaries, user profiles, a
validation, and aliases. Therefore, no option for the registration
table appears in the dialog.
