II_DBMS_LOG
II_DBMS_LOG points to the location of the log file containing DBMS server-specific error messages. It is set installation-wide. The server reads it at startup time, so changing it after startup has no effect on an existing server. Most error messages written to this file are also logged to the installation-wide error log (errlog.log). Some server trace messages and statistics information are written to the II_DBMS_LOG file that are not written to errlog.log. The default, if not set, is $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/errlog.log.
The file name specified can contain one or both of the following parameter values:
%p
Replaced at startup with the Process Identifier (PID) of the server process.
%d
Replaced at startup with the current date in YYYYMMDD format.
For example:
II_DBMS_LOG = $II_SYSTEM/ingres/files/dbms_%d_%p.log
This file specification prevents DBMS servers from writing to the wrong log.
