The global default log size, which can only be configured using the configuration editor, is controlled by the variable LogSize. It contains the following items:
prg=log
name=LogSize
value=size (in megabytes)
description="descriptive text" (optional)
enabled | disabled (default is enabled)
Group Screen installations are configured on the primary Screen. To set the global default log file size to 250 Mbytes, while logged into the primary Screen:
admin% ssadm -r primary edit Initial edit> vars add prg=log name=LogSize value=250 description="log size (MB)" |
To display the global default log file size:
admin% ssadm -r primary edit Initial edit> vars print prg=log name=LogSize PRG="log" NAME="LogSize" ENABLED VALUE="250" DESCRIPTION="log size (MB)" |
Although the output produced by print surrounds the value of each item in double quotes, these are only necessary on input if there are embedded spaces within the values of items. Also, although print outputs all tag names in capital letters (for example, PRG), these tags are recognized in a case-insensitive manner on input (for example, prg, Prg, and PRG are equivalent).
