Step 9: Configure and start syslogd (optional, but required to have ADNR write log messages and trace data to syslogd)

ADNR writes most log messages and trace data to the syslog daemon (syslogd). A limited number of messages are written to the MVS™ console, but these are unaffected by syslogd configuration. For ADNR to be able to write log messages and trace data to syslogd, syslogd must be properly configured and started before ADNR is started.

Because you might be running ADNR on the same system as the Advisor, for better readability, you might want to configure syslogd to place Advisor and ADNR log output in separate files. For further information, see Configuring the syslog daemon.
