The Web server access log typically contains every request received by the Web server. The access log for the IBM HTTP Server is maintained in the directory given by the CustomLog directive in the httpd.conf file.

CustomLog "WC_Install_Dir/instances/InstanceName/httplogs/access_log common xxxx

In that line, common denotes the log format. There are several predefined log formats, and you can define custom log formats using the LogFormat directive in order to provide the metrics that you want to monitor.

Refer to the Apache HTTP Server documentation for instructions on how to define custom log formats.
