Error Log File Location

Post by Anurhatha »

Whether Datastage Server will create log file for the error messages? If so where the log file will be located?
Thanks & Regards,

By default no.

To permit error logging, create the errlog file in the DataStage home directory. Make sure it is writable by everyone.

Code: Select all

cd $DSHOME
touch errlog
chmod 777 errlog
By default, this is a cyclic log containing at most 100 most recent entries. The number of entries is adjustable via the MAXERRLOGENT configuration parameter in the uvconfig file.
