=head1 NAME VolserLog - Traces Volume Server operations =head1 DESCRIPTION The F file records a trace of Volume Server (B process) operations on the local machine and describes any error conditions it encounters. If the VolserLog file does not already exist in the F directory when the Volume Server starts, the server process creates it and writes initial start-up messages to it. The file is in ASCII format. Administrators listed in the F file can use the B command to display its contents. Alternatively, log onto the file server machine and use a text editor or a file display command such as the UNIX B command. By default, the mode bits on the F file grant the required C (read) permission to all users. The Volume Server records operations only as it completes them, and so cannot recover from failures by reviewing the file. The log contents are useful for administrative evaluation of process failures and other problems. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L =head1 COPYRIGHT IBM Corporation 2000. All Rights Reserved.
