Flush

Use the ¯ush command to clear the output buffers of the MONITR process. This command is generally used before displaying the contents of the MONITR's FIFO buffer to prevent messages from scrolling off the screen. Accumulated messages are discarded.

The router allows only certain processes to be redirected. To obtain the pid and tty#, use the OPCON status command. In the following example, after executing the ¯ush 2 command, the output of the MONITR process is sent to the SNK (it has been ¯ushed).

Syntax:

flush pid

Example: flush 2

Halt

Use the halt command to suspend all subsequent output from a speci®ed process until the divert, ¯ush, or talk OPCON command is issued to the process. The router cannot redirect all processes. Halt is the default state for output from a process. To obtain the PID for this command, use the OPCON status command. In the following example, after executing the halt 2 command, the MONITR process is no longer connected to TTY1. Event messages no longer appear.

Syntax:
halt			pid
Example: halt 2
