OPC_SYSLOG Syslog Client for OpenVMS OPC_SYSLOG is used to read OpenVMS OPCOM messages and to transfer them to a SYSLOG server Installation OPC_SYSLOG is supplied as an OpenVMS kit and is installed with VMSINSTAL. The installation procedure asks for Device and Directory where OPC_SYSLOG should be installed. The rest of the installation is done automatically. So that OPC_SYSLOG is started automatically after a reboot of the OpenVMS machine, the OPC_SYSLOG startup command file OPC_SYSLOG_STARTUP.COM must either be entered in SYS $ MANAGER: SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM or in the SYSMAN data file. OPC_SYSLOG should be started as early as possible after a reboot. However, it must be ensured that TCPIP has already been started on the OpenVMS computer at this time. Starting and stopping OPC_SYSLOG The two command files OPC_SYSLOG_STARTUP.COM and OPC_SYSLOG_SHUTDWN.COM are used to start or stop OPC_SYSLOG Start OPC_SYSLOG To start OPC_SYSLOG, the startup co...
