The Extended Log Environment Definition File is a file that defines how to accumulate the SQC extended logs.
To collect the SQC extended logs, an Extended Log Environment Definition File must be set in advance. If no SQC extended log is to be collected, there is no need to set this file.
The Extended Log Environment Definition File is a text file. To create or edit the file, use a text editor such as Notepad. The path of this file is shown below:
[Windows]
<Variable file storage directory>\control\ExtendLogConfig |
[UNIX]
/etc/opt/FJSVssqc/ExtendLogConfig |
A sample Extended Log Environment Definition File is stored in the folder shown below during installation. The user can edit the sample file to create an Extended Log Environment Definition File.

The time stamp for the validity check is written on the first line and last line of the Extended Log Environment Definition File and the definitions of extended logs are written between these lines.
The definition of an extended log is a group (called a definition block in this document) of the following definitions.
