5.2 Extracting system log information

This section describes the procedure for extracting the system log information of an SAP system and provides an example of the output.

To extract system log information, you must set up your PFM - Agent for Enterprise Applications to store performance data in the Store database in System Log Monitor Command (PD_SLMX) records. Each time performance data is collected in a System Log Monitor Command (PD_SLMX) record, the system information is then extracted automatically. The previous record collection time is recorded in the timestamp file, and only the system log information that occurs after that time is extracted. The default is for the system log information of the SAP system to be output to the following text file:

Operating environment	System log information storage file
Windows	installation-folder\agtm\agent\instance-name\log\SYSLOG
Windows (for logical host operation)	environment-directory\jp1pc\agtm\agent\instance-name\log\SYSLOG
UNIX	/opt/jp1pc/agtm/agent/instance-name/log/SYSLOG
UNIX (for logical host operation)	environment-directory#/jp1pc/agtm/agent/instance-name/log/SYSLOG

#

The environment directory is on the shared disk that was specified when the logical host was created.

The processing result is stored in a System Log Monitor Command (PD_SLMX) record.

For details about the System Log Monitor Command (PD_SLMX) record, see 9. Records.

The following figure shows the procedure for extracting the system log information of an SAP system.
