Examining the Capture
Buffer
You can examine the contents of the capture buffer either by scrolling through it or by
searching for particular messages. As described in Table 5-3, you can either:
Enter a scroll command to control the amount of scrolling and then press a
function key to determine the type of scrolling (forward, backward, left, or right).
Enter an F (for “find”) command followed by the string you are searching for.
Press the ENTER key to start the search and the F5 (PF05) function key to find the
next occurrence.
In addition, you can clear the capture buffer by using the ERASE or REINIT command.
Note If the UTILITY field on the Command Entry screen is not blank, you must prefix the commands in
Table 5-3 with a slash (/): for example, /M.
