Process

With the following system profile parameters you can specify path and file names for local and central log files:

Parameter

Definition

rslg/central/file

Specifies the file name for the active central log. Standard way:

SLOGJ

rslg/central/old_file

Specifies the file name for the old central log. If a log change occurs then the active log is copied to the active log. Standard file name:

SLOGJO

rslg/local/file

Specifies the file name for the local log. Standard way:

SLOG<SAPSYSTEM number>

If required, you can edit these path names in the maintenance view of the profile parameter. To do this choose   Tools   CCMS   Configuration   Profile Maintenance  .

SAP System Number

You can use the SAP system number directly or use the symbols $$ in the profile to specify path names for log files. A system number is identified using the SAPSYSTEM parameter. This parameter is defined in both the start profile and the system profile. SAPSYSTEM appears in SAP instance names.

Example

hs1044_C11_17

C11 is the SAP SYSTEM. The host name is 1044 and is defined using the parameter SAPDBHOST. 17 is the number of the SAP system. Another C11 application server in hs1044 must have another SAP system number.

All application servers of an SAP system usually have the same number. Servers only have to have different number when two servers that belong to the same SAP system are supposed to run on the same host. In this case the number is needed to differentiate between the different servers.
