The SAS Deployment Wizard automatically enables logging
for most SAS servers. The following steps are necessary to enable
server logging:
-
A logging configuration
file must be created for the server. The logging configuration file
is an XML file that specifies and configures loggers and appenders.
The SAS Deployment Wizard
automatically creates an initial logging configuration file for each
server. Each server's configuration file is named logconfig.xml and
is located in the directory where the servers' start-up script is
located. For example, the metadata server's logging configuration
file is located in the following path:
SAS-configuration-directory/Lev1/SASMeta/MetadataServer
-
The LOGCONFIGLOC= system
option must be specified in the server's sasv9.cfg file. This system
option specifies the path and filename of the logging configuration
file, as in the following example:
-logconfigloc
"logconfig.xml"
If you want to change
the option to specify a different path or filename for the logging
configuration, then modify the LOGCONFIGLOC= option in the server's
sasv9_usermods.cfg file.
