LOGGING COMMANDS
LOG
EXTERNAL (FILTER)
log external (filter)
Overview Use this command to create a filter to select messages to be sent to the external
log. You can include messages based on:
• the priority/severity of the message
• the program that generated the message
• the logging facility used
• a sub-string within the message, or
• a combination of some or all of these.
The no variant of this command removes the corresponding filter, so that the
specified messages are no longer sent to the external log.
