HP NonStop SSH Reference Manual Configuring and Running SSH2 • 83
*
Means that no log messages are written to a file.
filenameprefix
Specifies the prefix of the log file set. The actual audit file names are constructed based on the prefix assigned
and by a number generated based on the settings of the LOGFILERETENTION parameter.
Default
By default, no log messages are written to a file ("*").
Considerations
• The LOGLEVELFILE parameter controls what messages are produced by SSH2.
• The LOGFORMATFILE parameter controls the log message format.

• LOGCONSOLE, LOGLEVELFILE, LOGFORMATFILE, LOGMAXFILELENGTH, LOGFILERETENTION
• "Log Messages" in the chapter entitled "Monitoring and Auditing".
LOGFILERETENTION
Use this parameter to control how many log files SSH2 keeps when log file rollover occurs.
Parameter Syntax
LOGFILERETENTION n
Arguments
n
Specifies the number of log files to keep.
Default
By default, 10 files are kept.
Considerations
• Setting the parameter to a value 0 disables log file retention.
• If log file retention is enabled, a minimum of 10 is enforced by this parameter.
• See section "Logfile/Auditfile Rollover" in the "Monitoring and Auditing" chapter for details on file rollover.
• The file security set for the current log file (e.g. via FUP SECURE command) will be used for subsequently
created log files. The very first log file will have the default file security of user super.super.
