Usage

Specify a path to an existing directory with an appropriate amount of space available or use $INFORMIXDIR/psm_act.log. If you specify a file name only, the storage manager creates the activity log in the working directory in which you started the storage manager.

If the PSM_ACT_LOG configuration parameter is not set, the OneDB Primary Storage Manager puts activity information in the directory specified with the BAR_ACT_LOG configuration parameter. To clearly distinguish ON-Bar and OneDB Primary Storage Manager activity information, use the PSM_ACT_LOG to specify a different location for the storage manager activity log.

The format of the file resembles the format of the database server message log. You can examine the activity log to determine the results of storage manager actions.

The file specified by the PSM_ACT_LOG configuration parameter is created if it does not exist.

You can also use the PSM_ACT_LOG environment variable to specify the location of the OneDB Primary Storage Manager activity log for your environment, for example, for a single session.
