6.7.4  System log user exit
Content Manager OnDemand generates messages about the various actions that occur on 
the system. For example, when a user logs on the system, Content Manager OnDemand 
generates a message that contains the date and time, the type of action, the user ID, and 
other information. Unless you specify otherwise, certain messages are automatically saved in 
the system logging facility. Y ou can configure the system to save other messages in the 
system logging facility. 
The system log user exit allows access to all of these messages. The exit can then use these 
messages for further processing. For example, an email can be generated when a load fails, 
or when a user’s system access pattern is abnormal and requires attention. For more 
information about the system log, see 11.4.1, “System log exit for Multiplatforms” on page 250 
and 11.4.2, “System log exit for z/OS” on page 253.
6.8  Summary
Content Manager OnDemand provides a secure environment. Security features within 
Content Manager OnDemand allow access control to the data and the APIs that access the 
data. The data itself is controlled at rest and in motion (SSL). Additional exits that are external 
to Content Manager OnDemand can be created that allow the creation of customized 
extensions to the Content Manager OnDemand internal security.
