Dell Solutions Enabler 10.1.0 Installation and Configuration Guide

Controlling daemon logging

All Solutions Enabler daemons use a consistent infrastructure for logging events, which you can customize using the general logging options in the daemon_options file (Table 1). In addition, the daemon_options file also includes daemon-specific options that allow you to further customize logging for a particular daemon (for example, storevntd and storsrvd).

By default, each daemon records its log data in a pair of files (daemon_name.log0 and daemon_name.log1) in the Solutions Enabler logging directory. Using this method, the daemons will alternate logging from one file to the other as they become full.

Optionally, you can configure each daemon to record its logs to a dated log file in the form daemon_name-yyyymmdd.log. Using this method, each daemon will begin recording to a newly dated log file on the first write after 12 A.M.

Table 1 shows the general logging configuration options you can use to customize the Solutions Enabler daemon log files. For details on the syntax and values, refer to the <SYMAPI_HOME>/config/daemon_options file installed in the configuration directory.
