Create an SAF Configuration File

You should create an SAF configuration file to tell the system which target nodes are eligible for storing messages. If an SAF configuration file does not exist, all target nodes are eligible for storing messages.

To create an SAF configuration file

1. Copy the sample SAF.CFG file you created to the $CAIGLBL0000/opr/saf directory.
2. Edit the SAF.CFG file as follows:
   • In the first position of each data line, specify the machine name (node) to be eligible for SAF. This name can be up to 15 alphanumeric characters.
   • In the second position of each data line, specify the directory under SAF root by which the identified log file of the machine (node) is to be accessed from this machine.
3. Save the edited file with the name SAF.CFG or choose a unique file name.
