Closes the current system log file, then creates and opens a new one.
SWITCHLOG
None.
When the SWITCHLOG command is executed, MPE/iX displays the previous system log file number (xxx), the percentage of file space used (yy), and the current open log file (zzz), as shown in the following example SYSTEM LOG FILE #xxx IS yy% FULL SYSTEM LOG FILE #zzz IS ON following message NO LOGGING LOG FILE xxxx IS yy% FULL This command may be issued from a session, job, in BREAK, or from a program. Pressing [Break] has no effect on this command. It requires system supervisor (OP) capability or must be issued from the console, unless it is distributed to users with the ALLOW command.
You should not BUILD new log files, since MPE/iX creates them automatically. If you do use BUILD to create a new log file and then attempt to switch the current log file to the file you created, user logging will suspend in an error state. The following message will be displayed SYSTEM LOG FILE #xxxx ENCOUNTERED ERROR #yyyy LOGGING SUSPENDED.
To switch logging to a new log file, enter SWITCHLOG
