Error description
Rational Developer for System z -RDz - Floating license users may see log files created for RCL_API_LOG_Sample_xxx.xml These log files are created by Rational Common Licensing for customers with Floating licenses. The logs do not indicate that any problems exists. Even when a configuration file, RCL_Log_Config.txt, is setup as follows in the RDz installation directory the log file is still being created: Location = Product = RDz Version = Size = LogLevel = TraceLevel = MaxFiles = EnableLogging = 0 EnableTracing = 0 The following environment variable is also set: RCL_LOG_CONFIG_PATH This environment should be set at installation time and points to the directory where configuration file resides. For example: RCL_LOG_CONFIG_PATH=C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP

Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All RDz customers that use floating licenses and Rational License Server **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Everytime RDz is started a log file is created for Rational Common Licensing (RCL) with no information in it. Even when an RCL configuration file was created that turned off logging the log file was still being created. ***********************************************************
Problem conclusion
**************************************************************** Problem Resolution: RCL provided a code change that is shipped with RDz in the RDz v8.0.3.5 fixpack. RCL will now check the configuration file to see if logging is enabled before creating a log file. The RCL congifuration file, RCL_Log_Config.txt , should contain the following: Location = Product = RDz Version = Size = LogLevel = TraceLevel = MaxFiles = EnableLogging = 0 EnableTracing = 0 In addition, the environment variable 'RCL_LOG_CONFIG_PATH' needs to be set. The EV must be set before the product is launched. The value of the EV, "RCL_LOG_CONFIG_PATH" should point to the directory of the installation. eg: RCL_LOG_CONFIG_PATH=C:\Temp **************************************************************** Additional Keywords:
