Configuring Siebel Gateway Name Server Log Files

The Siebel Gateway Name Server log file, NameSrvr.log, is located in the LOG folder of the Siebel Gateway Name Server root directory. This file captures operational information when the Siebel Gateway Name Server System Service is started manually or when Siebel Gateway Name Server errors occur. For further details on the Siebel Gateway Name Server, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

To configure Siebel Gateway Name Server logging

1. On the machine running the Siebel Gateway Name Server, set the following environment variable to the given value:
   • SIEBEL_LOG_EVENTS = 3 (or higher)

     For further information on this variable, see About Environment Variables for System Logging.

     NOTE:  If this value is set to 2 or lower, a Siebel Gateway Name Server log file is not created.

     For further information on setting environment variables, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

2. Stop and restart the machine running the Siebel Gateway Name Server for the environment variable to take effect.

NOTE:  If the Siebel Gateway Name Server does not create log files, the log details may still reside in the operating system buffer. Shut down the name server to flush the logging information to the log file.
