Systems with Digital UNIX or OpenVMS Alpha
If you are using the Digital UNIX or OpenVMS Alpha operating systems, the SRM
console prompt displays after the system startup display. The prompt looks like this:
>>>
To display any messages that scroll by, enter the
cat
el
command or
more el
command at the console prompt. Either command lists the contents of the event log file,
one screen at a time.
