Because audit emitters cannot use the Micro Focus Consolidated Tracing Facility (CTF) to produce diagnostic information, the SNMP emitter supports an alternative logging mechanism. This enables you to send log information to a file and optionally to the screen.
To use the logging mechanism, you use the agent.log_emitter, agent.log_to_screen and agent.logfilename entries in the configuration file. The sample below, illustrates the use of these entries. The comment lines (those preceded with #) document the allowable values.
