svcdumplog(1m)svcdumplog(1m)NAMEsvcdumplog - Prints contents of a binary serviceability log file
SYNOPSISsvcdumplog [-s num_of_entries] logfile
OPTIONS
The -s flag tells svcdumplog to skip the first num_of_entries log
entries before printing, where num_of_entries is a number.
DESCRIPTION
The svcdumplog program will print the contents of a binary log file.
DCE components log important information about their activities and
state via the DCE serviceability interface. The log messages can be
routed as desired via the dcecp log object. The messages can also be
written in either binary or in text format (information about specify‐
ing message format can be found in svcroute(5)). When binary format has
been specified for a component's messages, each log entry will be writ‐
ten as a binary record of data defined (in dce/svclog.h) as the con‐
tents of the serviceability prolog structure. The svcdumplog utility
will print the contents of such a binary log file as readable text.
