ST Option: Print Status of Log Files
Use the ST option to show the beginning time and the time of the first record presently in the log. For
CPT, the log begins when the Octel 200/300 is first installed and when it is reinstalled because of a
software upgrade. For CDR or MAC, you can use LOG BE option to alter the begin date. You can use the
ST option with all five log types (PR, BE, PF, MF andST).
When the log file becomes full, new records overwrite the oldest records in the log. Therefore, the
beginning time of the log and the time on the first record actually in the log at a given time are not the
same once the log has been overwritten.
In the following example, the records that were logged between 3:21:45 p.m., December 6, 2000, and
8:35:03 a.m., December 7, 2000, are no longer accessible.
To displaythe log beginning time, at the @ prompt, enter:
LOG ST x Enter
@LOG ST CPT
log name: CPT
LOG FILE BEGINNING TIME IS MM/DD/YY 15:21:45
