log_system_name

Returns the full path of the Replication Agent instance log file.

Syntax

log_system_name

Usage

  • When you create a Replication Agent instance, a log directory is created automatically as part of the instance directory structure. The default value of the log_directory parameter points to that directory.

  • The default path of the Replication Agent log directory on Microsoft Windows is:
    %SYBASE%\RAX-15_5\inst_name\log\
    The default path of the Replication Agent log directory on Linux and UNIX is:
    $SYBASE/RAX-15_5/inst_name/log/
    where:
    • %SYBASE% or $SYBASE is the Replication Agent installation directory.

    • inst_name is the name of the Replication Agent instance.

  • If you specify a valid directory path as the value of the log_directory parameter, the Replication Agent instance places its system log file in the directory you specify.

    If you change the value of the log_directory parameter with the ra_config command, the new value is recorded in the configuration file immediately, but you must shut down and restart the Replication Agent instance to make the new value take effect.

    See the log_directory parameter for more information.

  • The log_system_name command is valid when the Replication Agent instance is in the Admin, Replicating, or Replication Down state.
