Solaris_LogService

The Solaris_LogService class controls the operation of the logging service and defines the ways in which log data is handled. This class has a set of methods that an application can use to distribute data about a particular event to the CIM Object Manager from the issuing application. The data becomes a trigger that generates a response from the CIM Object Manager, such as a retrieval of data from the CIM Repository.

The Solaris_LogService class uses the following methods:

• clearLog - Renames, saves, and archives a current log file or deletes an archived log file

• getNumRecords - Returns the number of lines of data recorded in a particular log file

• listLogFiles - Returns a list of all log files stored in /var/opt/SUNWconn/wbem/log

• getCurrentLogFileName - Returns the name of the most recent log file

• getNumLogFiles - Returns the number of log files stored in /var/opt/SUNWconn/wbem/log

• getLogFileSize - Returns the size, in megabytes, of a particular log file

• getSyslogSwitch - Enables log data to be sent to SysLog, the logging service of the Solaris operating environment

• getLogStorageName - Returns the name of the host computer or device where log files are stored

• getLogFileDir - Returns the path and name of the directory where log files are stored

• setProperties - Enables you to set logging properties
