SAVE=backup file name Specify the filename in which you want to save
the preexisting console log.
By default, when you load CONLOG or when
the console log file reaches its maximum size,
the server deletes the existing console log file
and creates a new file in its place.
This parameter also enables autoexec.ncf to
load CONLOG without overwriting the previous
console log. Use this parameter at the
command line or in autoexec.ncf if you want to
examine the old console log for
troubleshooting purposes.
The backup file is in turn overwritten when a
preexisting console log is saved just before it is
replaced with a new file.
ARCHIVE=YES Archive up to 1000 console log files on your
NetWare server.
The first time you load CONLOG with this
option, the server saves the existing console
log file as the console.000 file.
Then each time you load the CONLOG utility
with the ARCHIVE option (or each time the
console log file reaches its maximum when
when CONLOG is loaded with the ARCHIVE
option), the server increments the extension of
the archive file by 1—console.001,
console.002, etc.
ENTIRE=YES Capture the lines already on the screen at the
time CONLOG is loaded.
Without this parameter, CONLOG starts
logging with the next output to the console after
it is loaded.
