Configuring the Log Size for a Specific Screen

You configure the global log size for a centralized management group of Screens, or Screens in an HA cluster, on the primary Screen through the administration GUI.

You configure the global log size through the command line (see Appendix B, Command-Line Reference). It is controlled by the variable LogSize.

The following is an example of what you would type to display the log file size for a specific Screen, while logged in to the primary Screen:

admin% ssadm -r primary edit Initial
edit> list Screen 
scrn1 ADMIN_CERTIFICATE "scrn1.admin"
CDP ROUTING DNS
scrn2 ADMIN_CERTIFICATE "scrn2.admin" CDP ROUTING DNS LOGSIZE 444

scrn1 does not have the log file size configured and so uses the global default value. scrn2 has a size of 444 (Mbytes) that is used instead of the global default value on that Screen.

The following is an example of what you would type to set the log file size for a specific Screen, while logged in to the primary Screen:

admin% ssadm -r primary edit Initialedit> add Screen scrn1
ADMIN_CERTIFICATE
scrn1.admin CDP ROUTING DNS LOGSIZE 20edit> save
edit> quit

When altering the value of LogSize, be sure to reenter all the other attributes as they were displayed by the list verb.
