SchedlogmaxAuthorized UserSupportedOptionsSyntaxThe schedlogmax option specifies the maximum size of the schedule log, inmegabytes. Log records are added to the end of the file, until the maximumspecified size is reached. When the maximum specified size is reached, a logrecord saying ″Continued at beginning of file″ is placed as the last record in thefile. Subsequent logging is resumed at the top of the file. The end of the wrappedlog is indicated by a record saying ″END OF DATA″. Log messages that areoverwritten by wrapping are not saved in a prune file, as they are with thepruning method of log size management.If you change from schedlogmax to schedlogretention, all existing log entries areretained and the log is pruned using the new schedlogretention criteria.If you change from schedlogretention to schedlogmax, all records in the existinglog are copied to the pruned log, dsmsched.pru, the existing log is emptied, andlogging begins under the new log wrapping criteria.If you change the value of the schedlogmax option, the existing log is extended orshortened to accommodate the new size. If the value is reduced, the oldest entriesare deleted to reduce the file to the new size.Restriction: You cannot specify a non-zero schedlogmax value and enableschedlogretention.ClientsThis option is valid for all UNIX and Linux clients.FilePlace this option in the dsm.sys file.
