Managing the log files

MainView Logger

 logspaces use the 

NGL

 logset log file data sets to store messages and event records that are produced by 

MainView Infrastructure

 and other BMC products. The log files are owned and maintained by the 

NGL

 started task procedure. 

NGL

 contains information about the log files.

Displaying a list of log files

Use the LOGLIST view to review information about the log files that are use by the NGL MainView agent. LOGLIST can help you determine:

  • How many log files have been created
  • How long a single log file lasts

To access the LOGLIST view

Perform one of the following actions:

  • In Plex Manager, type LOGLIST on the COMMAND line and press Enter.
  • From any MainView product that is running in windows mode, use the following CONtext command to access Plex Manager and display the LOGLIST view:
    CON * PLEXMGR;LOGLIST

The LOGLIST view appears.
