FILE
The FILE command selects the RDF log file to which subsequent RDFSCAN commands apply.
FILE [\system.][$volume.][subvolume.]file
HELP
The HELP command displays the syntax of RDFSCAN commands or introductory information about
the RDFSCAN utility.

LIST
The LIST command displays a specified number of log messages that contain the current match
pattern.
LIST number
LOG
The LOG command selects a file to which subsequent LIST commands copy their output in addition
to the standard output device. When you issue the LOG command followed by a LIST command,
RDFSCAN continues to display the LIST records on the standard device and also copies them to
the file specified in the LOG command.
LOG [\system.][$volume.][subvolume.]file
MATCH
The MATCH command specifies a pattern to search for in the log file. RDFSCAN searches for the
specified character string without regard for uppercase or lowercase.
MATCH text
NOLOG
The NOLOG command disables LIST command copying that was previously enabled by a LOG
command.
NOLOG
SCAN
The SCAN command scans a specific number of messages in the log file and displays all of those
in that range that contain the current match pattern.
SCAN number
File Names and Process Identifiers
File names and process identifiers sometimes appear as parameters in RDFCOM and RDFSCAN
commands. These names typically identify objects such as disk files, log devices, and processes.
Reserved File Names
Subvolume names that begin with the letter “Z” are reserved. You should not choose such names
when configuring RDF objects.
Disk File Names
The syntax for a file name that identifies a disk file is:
[\system.][[$volume.]subvol.]filee
