Purpose
Display a list of logfiles
or the contents
of a log file.
Syntax
- Display
the list of log files: show log list
- Display
the contents of a log file: show log filename
Parameters
- filename
- Name of file to be listed to console
Usage Notes
- For reporting problems
to IBM Support, use the platform must-gather command.
- In the event that network problems make it impossible
to retrieve
the must-gather output, this command can be used to list the logs
to the serial console. However, be aware that the serial port is
slow and the log files might be very large. Listing them this way
might take a long time.
Example
List
the displayable log files and
then list the contents of the default-log file.
Console> show log list
default-log
default-trace
Console> show log default-log
