pmx-mark - Write timestamp marks in log files
pmx-mark [options] [<file>...]
The pmx-mark
program writes timestamps into PureMessage log
files. Timestamps in the log files make it easier to determine when other
logged events occurred.
If invoked without arguments, pmx-mark
timestamps the files
specified in the stdout
and stderr
settings in the pmx.conf
file (by default, var/log/pmx_out and var/log/pmx_err
respectively). The timestamp marks are written as follows:
=== pmx-mark === 2002-12-31 23:59:59
by default, the PureMessage Scheduler runs pmx-mark
to create timestamps once
an hour.
The following options are recognized by pmx-mark
:
log_to
setting of the
etc/pmx.conf file (by default var/log/pmx_log).
After specifying option, you may specify additional files to be marked.
If no files are selected to be marked, the marker is written
to stdout
.
