Log Files

If the log file already exists, information is appended to the file. This allows multiple tools to use the same log file to record information. Use the -l option to record the output of a utility.

The log duplicates all standard output and error information to the specified file. Each log file begins with a time stamp and utility name. For example, YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS < utilname > - < output text> .

The following is an example of the logging behavior:

2003/11/28 10:23:17 syscfg - 
                              option1=on

2003/11/28 10:23:17 syscfg - 
                              option2=on

2003/11/28 10:23:17 syscfg - option3 =off

NOTE: The log files may contain sensitive information such as passwords and authentication information. To protect such information, it is recommended that only the administrator accesses the log files.
