Routing Serviceability Messages by Environment Variable

Serviceability message routing can also be specified by the values of certain environment variables. If environment variables are used, the routings they specify will override any conflicting routes specified by the routing file.

The routes are specified on the basis of severity level by putting the desired routing instructions in their corresponding environment variables:

· SVC_FATAL

· SVC_ERROR

· SVC_WARNING

· SVC_NOTICE

· SVC_NOTICE_VERBOSE

Each variable should contain a single string in the format

out_form:dest[;out_form:dest . . . ]

where out_form and dest have the same meanings and form as in the preceding syntax line. Multiple routings can be specified with semicolon-separated additional substrings specifying the additional routes, as shown.
