OUTLINECHANGELOG

Parameters

OUTLINECHANGELOG logs all outline changes into the file database_name.OLG. OUTLINECHANGELOG allows database administrators to review the outline revision history and gather enough information to roll back changes if needed.

Each Hyperion Essbase database contains a separate outline change log file in the same location as the database. The file is stored in the database directory on the server.

The data format of the outline change log is:

• Date and time of outline modification
• Name of the user who made the change
• Type of change the user made
• Details describing the type of change made

Syntax

OUTLINECHANGELOG TRUE | FALSE

TRUE	Hyperion Essbase logs outline changes into the file database_name.OLG.
FALSE	Hyperion Essbase does not log outline changes. The default is FALSE.

Notes

• During a restructure, Hyperion Essbase holds outline change information in memory until all updates have been made to the outline change log. Turning on the outline change log might, therefore, affect your restructure performance.
• For detailed information about outline change log contents, see the Hyperion Essbase Database Administrator's Guide.
• To set the size of the outline change log, use the OUTLINECHANGELOGFILESIZE parameter in your ESSBASE.CFG file.
