RDF System Management Manual for J-series and H-series RVUs (RDF 1.10)

To disable pattern matching, merely press the RETURN key at the prompt without entering a pattern.
When entering a match pattern, you can use asterisks (*) and question marks (?) as wild-card
characters.
When pattern matching is enabled, the DISPLAY function is automatically enabled; when pattern
matching is disabled, the DISPLAY function is automatically disabled.
Table 15 shows the symbols RDFSCAN uses in pattern matching.

Examples
The commands in this example specify scanning the entry-sequenced file, starting at record 1000,
for the first five records that contain the text “LOG FILE”:
Enter the next RDFSCAN function you want: MATCH *LOG FILE*
File: $SYSTEM.SANFRAN.RDFLOG, current record: 6454,
last record: 9466, Pattern: *LOG FILE*
Enter the next RDFSCAN function you want: AT 1000
File: $SYSTEM.SANFRAN.RDFLOG, current record: 1000,
last record: 9466, Pattern: *LOG FILE*
Enter the next RDFSCAN function you want: LIST 5

The NOLOG command disables LIST command copying that was previously enabled by a LOG
command.

Usage Guidelines
When you issue the NOLOG command, RDFSCAN stops copying records to the file specified in
the LOG command. However, RDFSCAN continues to display at your terminal all records accessed
by subsequent LIST commands.
