The user log file USLOG is maintained as the file generation directory USLOG. KDCLOG allows you to close the current user log file (file generation) during live operation and open a new user log file at the same time. This is the file generation with the next generation number in the sequence. The closed log file can then be used in any way you choose. KDCLOG acts on both files if a dual user log file is being used. For further information about the user log file USLOG, please refer to the openUTM manual “Using UTM Applications”.
Effect in UTM cluster applications
KDCLOG has a global effect in UTM cluster applications, i.e. it applies to all running node applications.
Period of validity of the change
The application writes to the new USLOG file generation(s) until KDCLOG is used to switch to the next file generation.
After the application ends, you can also change to the next file generation using operating system commands (see the openUTM manual “Using UTM Applications”).
