GOAL:
What does the EVTLEVEL environment variable do?
GOAL:
What does -evtlevel startup parameter do?
GOAL:
What does setting the EVTLEVEL environment variable to None do?
GOAL:
What does setting the startup parameter -evtlevel to None do?
FIX:
The ?evtlevel startup parameter and the EVTLEVEL environment variable indicate the amount of logging you wish Progress and its clients to use when writing to the Event Viewer Log file.
The setting of the parameter or variable to None stop the processes from writing to the Event Viewer Log file. All error messages associated with the Progress database and it?s clients will continue to be written to the database log file or server/broker log files. The ?evtlevel and EVTLEVEL environment variable only sets the amount of messages you want written to the Event Viewer Log file.
The following is an excerpt from our documentation regarding the Event Level values:
You can define the level of event logging that you want your OpenEdge application to support by using the Event Level Environment Variable (EVTLEVEL), or the Event Level startup parameter (-evtlevel).
