# Set up Document Tracking with a Log Back End

This section describes how to set up document tracking to store information in an HPE IDOL Server log file.

To configure document tracking in logs

1. Open the HPE IDOL Server configuration file in a text editor.

2. If you are using DIH in a unified IDOL configuration, turn on document tracking for the DIH by setting the `DocumentTracking` parameter to `True` in the `[DistributionSettings]` section.

       [DistributionSettings]
       DocumentTracking=True

   Note: In a stand-alone DIH, set the `DocumentTracking` parameter to `True` in the `[Server]` section of the DIH configuration file.

3. Create a `[DocumentTracking]` configuration section.

4. In this `[DocumentTracking]` section, set the `Backend` parameter to `Log`.

5. Set any other configuration parameters for document tracking. For more information, refer to the IDOL Server Reference. For example:

       [DocumentTracking]
       MaxEventsPerFile=500
       TimeoutSeconds=20
       UIDFieldName=UID

6. Find the `[Logging]` configuration section.

7. Configure a new log stream for document tracking, with `LogTypeCSVs` set to `doctrack`. For more information, see Customize Logging.

   For example:

       [Logging]
       LogLevel=FULL
       LogDirectory=Logs
       0=ApplicationLogStream
       1=ActionLogStream
       2=DocumentTrackingLogStream
       ...

       [DocumentTrackingLogStream]
       LogFile=doctrack.log
       LogHistorySize=50
       LogTime=True
       LogEcho=False
       LogMaxSizeKBs=1024
       LogTypeCSVs=doctrack

8. Save and close the configuration file. Restart HPE IDOL Server for your changes to take effect.
