Logging Events

An API application can log event messages to central locations. It can direct logging to the TSM server, the local machine, or both. The dsmLogEventEx function call is performed inside a session. To view messages logged on the server, use the query actlog command through the Administrative Client. See the TSM Administrator's Reference for more information.

We recommend that you use the TSM client option, errorlogretention, to prune the client error log file if the application generates numerous client messages that are written to the client log (dsmLogType either logLocal or logBoth).
