FAQ
Hi everyone.

Quick question about variables in CM4's configuration pages.
Part of our logging standard for directory includes the hostname of
the machine. So, rather than:

/var/log

I need:

/logs/[hostname]/

Is there a way to represent "hostname" as a variable that will be
replaced by CM?

Thanks!
Chris

    Hi Chris,

    We do not have support for this feature. You could work around this by
    setting all the log directories per role, using the API. Alternately,
    perhaps you could establish a symlink from /mylog to /logs/hostname on each
    machine.

    Thanks,
