(or you
can manually edit the file):
...

<file_system>...</file_system>
<logging>

logging_directory
</directory>
<log_size>
size_mb
</log_size>
<level>

2.
To set user logging values, create logging classes (each with a specific logging configuration) and then assign
users to classes.
a) Create a logging class:
# asconfigurator -x
"set_log_setting_data;classes,
class_name
;directory,
logging_directory
;log_size,
size_mb
;level,
log_level
"
Object
Description
classes
The name of the class. This is the value that you use
to assign users to this "class" of logging settings.
directory
The full path to the logging directory. Applies only to
ascp
transfers.
log_size
The size of the log file, in MB, at which it is rotated
(the oldest information is overwritten by the newest
information). Default: 10 MB. Applies to
ascp
and
ascp4
transfers.
level
The logging level. Valid values are
log
(default),
dbg1
, or
dbg2
. Applies only to
ascp
transfers.
b) Assign a user to the logging class:
# asconfigurator -x
"set_user_data;user_name,
username
;logging_class,
class_name
"
For example, the following commands create two logging classes,
admin
and
home
. The
home
logging class
uses the substitution string $(home) to log to the user's home directory, ensuring that the transfer users have access
to the log files for their transfers. They assign user
root
to the
admin
logging configuration, and users
user1
and
user2
to the
home
logging configuration.
# asconfigurator -x "set_log_setting_data;classes,admin;directory,/root/
logs;log_size,3;level,dbg"
# asconfigurator -x "set_log_setting_data;classes,home;directory,$(home)/
logs;log_size,20";level,dbg"
# asconfigurator -x "set_user_data;user_name,root;logging_class,admin"
