            Reporter: Matt Brown

             Fix For: 1.0 (pre-incubation)


Hi Matt,

Narendra and I were discussing this yesterday.
Here are a few ideas…
As of RH6 – we no longer have evlog.
With Trafodion, there’s no seapilot.
To look at /var/log/messages, you have to be root.
Syslog seemed like a good idea yesterday.
$MY_SQROOT/export/include/seabed/logalt.h – SBX_log_write allows you to do that:
void SBX_log_write(int                     log_type,
                   const char             *log_file_dir,
                   const char             *log_file_prefix,
                   int                     comp_id,
                   int                     event_id,
                   posix_sqlog_facility_t  facility,
                   posix_sqlog_severity_t  severity,
                   const char             *name,
                   const char             *msg_prefix,
                   const char             *msg,
                   const char             *snmptrap_cmd,
                   const char             *msg_snmptrap,
                   char                   *msg_ret,
                   size_t                  msg_ret_size);

We also discussed rolling our own – but then you have to worry about the logs filling up
and the whole log management thing.

Subject: Question about logging 

Hi Dave,

In new Trafodion environment do you know where event logs are located? Our product is still logging to QPid but I have no idea where these events are going. I don’t even see anything in monitor logs any longer. Dave B. said you might have some insight.

Thanks,

Matt
