-----------------------------------------------------------------
Rick, I'm a bit confused by your proposed options: doesn't the argument that is
passed to the function decide which log file it should read?
Or, were you only asking what the behavior should be when the argument is
omitted?

> Undefined behavior of SYSCS_DIAG.ERROR_LOG_READER() when using rolling log

> Key: DERBY-6943
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6943
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Services
> Affects Versions: 10.13.1.1
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
>
> The behavior of SYSCS_DIAG.ERROR_LOG_READER() is undefined when the engine is
> booted with -Dderby.stream.error.style=rollingFile. At a minimum, it should
> scan at least one of the rolling files. Instead, it raises an exception
> saying that it can't find derby.log.
> The following script shows this behavior:
> {noformat}
> connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:db;create=true';
> -- correctly succeeds if using ordinary diagnostic logging
> -- INCORRECTLY RAISES 'No such file or directory' if
> -Dderby.stream.error.style=rollingFile is set
> SELECT count(*) FROM TABLE (SYSCS_DIAG.ERROR_LOG_READER()) AS T1;
> -- correctly succeeds if using ordinary diagnostic logging
> -- correctly raises 'No such file or directory' if
> -Dderby.stream.error.style=rollingFile is set
> SELECT count(*) FROM TABLE (SYSCS_DIAG.ERROR_LOG_READER('derby.log')) AS T1;
> -- correctly raises 'No such file or directory' if using ordinary logging
> -- correctly succeeds if -Dderby.stream.error.style=rollingFile is set
> SELECT count(*) FROM TABLE (SYSCS_DIAG.ERROR_LOG_READER('derby-0.log')) AS T1;
> {noformat}
> We should decide on a correct behavior for SYSCS_DIAG.ERROR_LOG_READER() when
> the -Dderby.stream.error.style=rollingFile property is set. Here are some
> options:
> 1) Scan all of the rolling diagnostic log files, starting at derby-0.log and
> continuing through the last in the series.
> 2) Scan just the first rolling diagnostic log file.
> 3) Scan just the last (current) diagnostic log file.
