Node Management Services automatically format logging records
sent to the console. Logging records sent to a disk file are stored
in coded form. These records are decoded and formatted by the NMS
Trace/Log File Analyzer (NMDUMP), an NMS system utility program.
Figure 19-1 “A Formatted Log Record” shows a typical log
record formatted by NMDUMP. To learn how to use NMDUMP see the Log
and Trace Files section in Using
the Node Management Services (NMS) Utilities manual.
Log files and two examples of the information returned in
a formatted log file are explained in "Using Log Files"
later in this section.
