pdm_logfile--Change stdlog Cutover Size

pdm_logfile lets you change your stdlog.x cutover size. The cutover can occur after a specified number of bytes are written. On UNIX, this value is reset with each pdm_init. On Windows, the settings are retained with each pdm_halt and pdm_init.

Syntax

This command has the following format:

pdm_logfile [-L|-h]

or

pdm_logfile [-g -h] [-b bytes]

Example

To change your stdlog.x files to cutover at 500,000 bytes, issue the following command:

pdm_logfile -f STD -b 500000

-L

Creates a listing of current cutovers.

-q

Runs pdm_logfile in quiet mode.

-b bytes

Specifies the number of bytes written before cutover occurs.

Restrictions

You can run pdm_load while CA SDM is active, but performance can become very slow. It is best to run pdm_load when no one is using CA SDM.

Important! On UNIX, the LIBPATH must be set before running several CA SDM utilities. Use pdm_task to set the LIBPATH before running a utility. For example, input "pdm_task pdm_clean_attachments ...".
