To update an existing configuration, select the Log Daemon entry on the HPSS Servers window and

Description
A mask of options to apply
to local logging.
Advice: If neither Local LogFile nor Syslog is specified, no local logging will occur.
If Log Daemon is not specified, messages from HPSS processes executing on the
same node as this Log Client will not be written to the central log. The Syslog option
should be used with care. The syslog file will grow without bound until it is deleted/
truncated, or until the file system runs out of space.
