LOGCONFIGLOC=file-specification


Syntax Description

file-specification

specifies the physical name of the XML configuration file that is used to initialize the SAS logging facility. The physical name is the name that is recognized by your operating system. Enclose the physical name in single or double quotation marks if the name contains spaces.


Details

If the LOGCONFIGLOC= system option is specified when SAS starts, and if the SYSIN= option or the OBJECTSERVER option is also specified, logging is performed only by the logging facility; the SAS log is not started and the LOGPARM= system option is ignored. The LOG= system option is applied only when the %S{App.Log} conversion character is specified in the logging configuration file.


Examples

The following example shows the use of the LOGCONFIGLOC= system option:

sas -logconfigloc metaserverlog.xml
