-Xsyslog

Enables operating system message logging.

Notes:

• Changes made to message logging by using the -Xsyslog option do not affect messages written to the standard error stream (stderr).
• This option replaces the Eclipse OpenJ9™ -Xlog option in Eclipse OpenJ9 version 0.24.0. If the -XX:+LegacyXlogOption is set, -Xlog behaves in the same way as -Xsyslog and with the same parameters.

Syntax
