Logging Messages to a Unicode File
Logging messages to a Unicode text file is optional. By default, the feature is
disabled. To enable this feature, modify the Event Manager section of the
dcemdy32.ini file as follows:
• In Windows, locate the file at <install_path>\dataeng\ini and set
UnitextLog.enabled=True . The default <install_path> is C:\Program
Files\Dell\SysMgt. Restart the DSM SA Event Manager service.
• In Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, locate the file at
<install_path>/dataeng/ini and set
UnitextLog.enabled=True . The
default install_path is /opt/dell/srvadmin. Issue the "/etc/init.d/dataeng restart"
command to restart the Server Administrator event manager service.
