Modify Logging Characteristics

Several characteristics of a system log message can be modified with environment variables in the

/usr/dm/emasslogs/emasslog_parms file that is created at install time.

When the emasslog_parms file is modified, run the

reload_dmlog script, or stop and start the DMFS to activate the new options.

The /etc/dm/scripts/reload_dmlog script allows system administrator to specify which processes to reload with the new logging levels in the emasslog_parms file.

An example of the emasslog_parms file follows:

Comment lines begin with a number sign ( # ).

#This file contains all the environment variables

#EL_SYSLOG_OPTIONS indicates the format of each message to syslog

Each environment variable name EL_SYSLOG_OPTIONS=p; starts in column one.

Equal symbol ( = ) is followed by a value and ends with a semicolon (;).

#EL_PERF_MASK enables the performance logging EL_PERF_ASK=ud;
