Command Definition F-K
GETLOG
If a log file is restricted to a single volume or volume class when it is created with the
BUILD command, then successive log files created by User Logging will have the same
restriction.
If a new log file name is specified with the ALTLOG command, the links with any previous
log file are broken.
There cannot be two logging identifiers with the same name on the system at the same
time. The LISTLOG command can be used to determine what logging identifiers currently
exist.
Use
This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK. Pressing Break
has no effect on this command. User logging (LG) capability is required to use this
command.
Example
To create the logging identifier FINANCE and associate it with the disk log file A, enter:
GETLOG FINANCE;LOG=A,DISC
