Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of High Performance Extensible    *
  *                  Logging (HPEL).                             *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: HPEL causes catalog and                 *
  *                      container servers to hang on startup.   *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When you update the value of the
  hpelEnabled property to true in the server properties file,
  both
  the
  catalog
  and
  container
  servers hang on startup.
  

Problem conclusion

• The logic in the HPEL
  initialization process was updated to wait for server startup
  to complete before
  redirecting logs to the specified or default HPEL log file
  location.
