				Hi All,
 
 
Would anybody tell me what would be a good location to store all the MQ logs. Can we store it on /var or Do we need a seperate file system like /mqlogs to store them?....Also, if I would need a seperate file system, how would I tell MQ to store the logs in the new location?.
 
 
Thanks. |

				Many users prefer a seperate FS for the logs for a variety of system's management reasons (like being able to use a seperate device, space mgmt, etc).
 
 
The path to the log is controlled by mqs.ini at qmgr creation time and qm.ini at execution time. _________________ -wayne |

				| Also, flags can be specified on crtmqm to point to the path where you want the logfiles to be |

				Thanks guys for your replies...It makes more sense to me now...
 
 
On a side note,Where do you think I can find the syntax of the flag that can be used to specify the log location?.
 
 
Thanks. |

System Administration Guide, Chapter 17 "The control commands" under "crtmqm" - oddly enough.

				or, perhaps "man crtmqm" will work.... _________________ -wayne |

				btw...if you code the defaultLogLocation in the mqs.ini file, you don't need to remember to specify "-ld" on the crtmqm command.... _________________ -wayne |
