ClearCase error messages

APPLICABILITY

ClearCase (data structure)

SYNOPSIS

%SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.exe

DESCRIPTION

The various ClearCase server and user programs can write messages to the Windows application event log. The source of all ClearCase-related messages is ClearCase. A typical event log entry includes the date and time of the error, the software module in which the error occurred, the current user, and an error-specific message. The following is a sample message generated by the view_server:

01/05/99 13:07:49 view_server(19314): Error: Set configuration
spec of .compiled_spec failed

As errors accumulate, the error log files grow. Use the Event Viewer to save or delete logs.

MVFS Log

By default, the MVFS logs status messages to the file C:\mvfslogs. You can use the MVFS tab in the ClearCase Control Panel to change this pathname. By default, the ClearCase scheduler periodically runs a job that deletes MVFS log files more than seven days old. See the schedule reference page for information on describing and changing scheduled jobs.
