The syslogs are a Unix construct. Speak to the sys admins for your box on what options they have available.

| I have the steps for directing broker errors to a /var/mqsi/user.log file on a linux system, which may be the same for whatever unix system you are on. It involves logging in as root. I can post here if you think it might fill the bill. |

I know how to redirect WebSphere Message Broker (mq) messages to a file ...but all that can be done before a broker is created.
Any way of doing it after the broker has been created? |

| This procedure just involves restarting the syslog daemon after you set up the file and permissions, and update the syslog.conf file |

OK, here it is:
1.Log on as root.
2.Enter the following commands to create a file called user.log.
On Linux systems, enter the command:
touch /var/mqsi/user.log
chown root:mqbrkrs /var/mqsi/user.log
chmod 640 /var/mqsi/user.log
3.Add the following line to the /etc/syslog.conf file to redirect debug level messages to the file user.log:
On Linux, enter :
user.info\t/var/mqsi/user.log
where “\t” is the tab character.
4.Restart the syslog daemon.
On Linux, enter the command:
/etc/init.d/syslog restart
or
/etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog restart
for systems where rc.d is not a soft link
For other syslog options, see the documentation for your operating system. |
