Integration

The CMS command line tool writes user messages to the console. You can redirect user messages into a file by using the command logfile .

Example

The user messages will be redirected into the file useroutput.txt .

logfile -f useroutput.txt -m on --append

If you use the command logfile with option -m and parameter off , the user messages will be redirected back to the console.

Besides user messages there are also technical messages - that is the stack traces . The stack traces are useful in case of problems or errors.

These messages are not written to the console.

Example

The technical messages will be redirected into the file tracemsg.txt

tracefile --m on -f tracemsg.txt

If you use the command tracefile with option --sl , you can specify how detailed the trace messages should be.
