Configuring the License Server
SentinelLM System Administrator’s Guide 25
Here are what the fields in the first entry mean, reading from left to right:
SentinelLM writes records to the log file until it reaches its maximum size. The
default value for maximum size is 1 megabyte but this can be changed using the
-z option in the LSERVOPTS environment variable or at command-line. Once
the maximum size is reached, the contents of the current log file will be saved
into a backup file unless the no-backup -x option has been used in the
LSERVOPTS environment variable or at command line. If -x has been selected,
the license server will simply stop logging when the maximum size is reached.
For information on the license server -x and -z options and for more detail on
how log file backups are created, see “LSERVOPTS - Set License Server
