To analyze your logs and to read what you are logging, you must print your log files. To do this, use the LOGTOOL utility program. The LOGTOOL utility runs under the online diagnostic system, and can be invoked by entering SYSDIAG. When the diagnostic user interface prompt (DUI>) appears, enter RUN LOGTOOL.
In order to print a log, issue the following:
:SYSDIAG
DUI>RUN LOGTOOL
LOGTOOL>LIST LOG=log# OUTFILE=LP
LOGTOOL>EXIT
DUI>EXIT
Enter HELP after the LOGTOOL prompt for more information. The STATUS command reports on the status of all system log files.
The following example shows the use of the STATUS command in the sequence of printing a log.
:SYSDIAG
DUI >RUN LOGTOOL
LOGTOOL>status
LOGTOOL>list log=0027 outfile=LP
DUI >EXIT
|
If you do not specify the OUTFILE parameter, the log prints on your terminal screen. Typically this report is very long and ties up your terminal for quite some time. If this does happen, you can enter CTRL Y
to break the process.
