binlog.conf(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual binlog.conf(4)
NAME
binlog.conf - binlogd configuration file
SYNOPSIS
event_code.priority destination Where: Are the numeric codes specified in binlog.h and the binlogd(8) reference page. An aster-
isk (*) specifies that all events should be selected. The code dumpfile Specifies the recovery of the kernel binary event log buffer from a
crash dump. A severity level cannot be specified. Filters selected events as severe, high, and low. An asterisk (*) specifies that all
events should be selected. A local file pathname to a log file, or a remote system hostname for remote logging of events.
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/binlog.conf file is a system file that enables you to configure or filter events that are to be logged by the binary error logger,
binlogd.
The binlogd daemon ignores blank lines and lines that begin with an octothorpe (#). You can specify # as the first character in a line to
include comments in the file or to disable an entry.
If you want the binlogd daemon to use a configuration file other than the default, specify the file name with the following command: # bin-
logd -f config_file Note that EVM subscribes to binlog events by default, and any configuration options you select will affect what events
are available to EVM. You can filter and select binlog events using EVM utilities, as described in the EVM(5) reference page.
EXAMPLES
The following is a sample /etc/binlog.conf file: # # binlogd configuration file # #format of a line: event_code.priority destination
# # where: event_code - see codes in binlog.h and man page, # * = all events # priority - severe, high, low, * = all priorities #
destination - local file pathname or remote system # hostname
*.* /usr/adm/binary.errlog dumpfile /usr/adm/crash/binlogdumpfile crdlog /usr/adm/binary.crdlog 102.high
