Operation Notes | |
This command changes the attributes of an existing user logging
identifier to those specified in the parameter list. Parameters
not included in the ALTLOG
command retain their current values. System supervisor (OP) or user
logging (LG) capability is required to use this command. Only the
creator of the logging identifier can alter its attributes. To use the AUTO
parameter, the log process for logid must be
enabled for changing. You may do this by ending the log file name
with the numeric characters 001 (for example, fname001).
This naming convention works in conjunction with the file set number
to generate sequential file names automatically. If a log file is restricted to a single volume or volume class
when it is created with the BUILD
command, then successive log files created by User Logging will
have the same restriction. If a new log file name is specified with the ALTLOG
command, the links with any previous log file are broken. Use | |
This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or
in BREAK. Pressing Break has
no effect on this command. User logging (LG) capability is required
to use this command. Example | |
To change the destination log file of the logging identifier
KIM to log file
C and specify
that C resides
on disk, enter: Since the keyword parameter, PASS=,
was omitted, KIM
retains any password previously specified. Related Information | |
