By default, the log file is saved in the C:\Users\<current user>\AppData\Local\SimSuite\log folder. The default log file name is FnetExport.log.
Override the default log file location and name by executing the -l parameter. In the following example, the -l command string is executed to update the log file name.
FnetExport -p "New_Workspace" -f "Pipeline_Num" -e "es\control_room" -l "C:\Log\FnetExport_Pipeline_Num.log" -u -c 14
All messages generated by the command line tool are stored in the log. The log file stores information, warning and error messages generated by the SimConstruct application, as well as by the FnetBLTCaller and LoadUnifiedObjectModelProxy results.
The example log file FnetExport_Pipeline_Num.log appears as follows:
