If the command executes successfully, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:

file_name

Name of the log file.

If no path is included, the file is stored in the default directory for diagnostics files, /var/opt/sna. If a path is included, this path is either a full path (starting with a [/] character) or the path relative to the default directory.

backup_file_name

Name of the backup log file. When the log file reaches the size specified by file_size, SNAplus2 copies the current contents of the log file to this file and then clears the log file. You can also request a backup at any time using set_log_file.

If no path is included, the backup log file is stored in the default directory for diagnostics files, /var/opt/ sna. If a path is included, it is either a full path (starting with a [/] character) or the path relative to the default directory.
