Troubleshooting SySAM

When you boot Replication Server with SySAM support, problems acquiring licenses or contacting the asset management software appear in the Replication Server error log file, <SERVERNAME>.log, located in your default install directory. For details on the SySAM daemon, see the lmgrd.log SySAM daemon log file, located at $SYBASE/$SYBASE_SYSAM/log
