Log Descriptor Element

A log element specifies the name of a log file for a server or service. A log element must be defined for each log file that can be accessed remotely by an administrative tool. Note that it is not necessary to define a log element for the values of the Ice.StdErr and Ice.StdOut properties.

This element may only appear as a child of a server element or a service element.

The following attributes are supported:
