Compaq AlphaServer Partition Manager

9-37

The CAPM log file contains a record of the transaction information and any
errors that occur as the application runs. An excerpt from a CAPM log file is
shown in Example 9–1. The file is saved to the folder C:\SMC\CAPM\LOGS.
Every time CAPM runs, information is appended to the current log file. This
file, always named CAPMLOG.TXT, is used until its size reaches 1 MB. It is
then renamed CAPMLOG.BAK, and a new CAPMLOG.TXT log is started.

NOTE: When a new CAPMLOG.TXT file is created, the existing

CAPMLOG.BAK file is overwritten. If you want to keep this record of
partitioning activity, be sure to back up the LOGS folder regularly.

As shown in Example 9–1, the information type for each entry is listed in
brackets. This is for ease of sorting and processing.

CAPM partition map files are written to C:\SMC\CAPM\MAPS. This is done
only when you select the Save As… button and provide a file name. The default
extension is .PMF.
