Alters the attributes of an existing user logging
identifier.
ALTLOG logid
[;LOG=logfile {,DISC}]
{,TAPE}
[;PASS=password]
[{;AUTO }]
{;NOAUTO}
logid The logging identifier whose attributes are to be
changed. This identifier must contain from one to
eight alphanumeric characters, beginning with an
alphabetic character.
logfile The name of the file to receive data from the
logging procedure. This name must contain from one
to eight alphanumeric characters, beginning with an
alphabetic character. You must specify the device
class on which log file resides, DISC or TAPE.
password The new password for the logging identifier. This
password must contain from one to eight alphanumeric
characters, beginning with an alphabetic character.
AUTO Initiates an automatic CHANGELOG if the current log
file becomes full. Refer to the CHANGELOG command.
NOAUTO Prevents the initiation of an automatic CHANGELOG.
A CHANGELOG will not be performed if the current
log file becomes full. Default.
This command changes the attributes of an existing user
logging identifier to those specified in the parameter list.
Parameters not included in the ALTLOG command retain their
current values. You must have system supervisor (OP) or User
Logging (LG) capability to execute ALTLOG. Only the creator
of the logging identifier can alter its attributes.
To use the AUTO parameter, the log process for logid must be
enabled for changing. You may do this by ending the log
file name with the numeric characters 001 (for example,
fname001). This naming convention works in conjunction with
the file set number to generate sequential file names
automatically.
If a log file is restricted to a single volume or volume
class when it is created with the BUILD command, then
successive log files created by user logging will have the
same restriction.
If a new log file name is specified with the ALTLOG command,
the links with any previous log file will be broken.
This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in
BREAK. Pressing [Break] has no effect on this command. It
requires User Logging (LG) capability.
To change the destination log file of the logging identifier
KIM to log file C and specify that C resides on disk, enter
ALTLOG KIM;LOG=C,DISC
Since the keyword parameter, PASS=, was not included, KIM
retains any password previously specified.
