Change the Database Log Path (newlogpath)

This parameter contains the current path being used for logging purposes. You cannot change this parameter directly as it is set by the database manager after a change to the newlogpath parameter becomes effective.

When a database is created, the recovery log file for it is created in a subdirectory of the directory containing the database. The default is a subdirectory named SQLOGDIR under the directory created for the database.
