  ****************************************************************
  When the port replication strategy has been modified
  from the default settings of none (default settings are
  not saved to configuration file), the modified setting is not
  saved to the configuration file.  Log files show size
  0 and data not saved in logs.
  

Problem conclusion

• The port object did not obtain the current repstrategy setting
  prior to the save action. Log file open call fails. Corrected
  code to obtain current value before the save is performed.
  Corrected log file open call.
