Limitations, Restrictions

Numerous System Debug commands are implemented with aliases. If these predefined aliases are deleted, commands you are accustomed to using may not be available. Refer to the ALIASINIT command for a complete list of predefined aliases.

CAUTION: The output format of all System Debug commands is subject to change without notice. Programs that are developed to postprocess System Debug output should not depend on the exact format (spacing, alignment, number of lines, uppercase or lowercase, or spelling) of any System Debug command output.
