Time Specifications and Log File Management
If all information stored is to be listed, timing is the only criteria that needs to be specified.
There are two types of time frames. The first starts with the logical beginning time or the
first record in the log and ends with the end of the file. The second has a specified start and
end time within the first time frame.
☞
If the CDR log buffer has filled, the records at the beginning of the log will be over-
written. Over-writing begins with the physical beginning of the buffer rather than
with the logical beginning time that has been set.
Logical Begin Time Setting the logical beginning time tells the VP 300 where to
[B <TIME>] start the CDR log if no other start time is specified. Once the
logical begin time is set, records collected prior to this date are
no longer accessible.
☞
When using the CDR data to develop reports, the logical
begin time should be set. If it is not set, when data wraps,
no date is available to help determine how much data was
lost. Refer to Wrap on the next page.
To set the begin time, at the @ prompt, enter CDR B and the
year, month, day, hour, minute of the begin time. Separate the
information by a blank space.
The logical begin time is 12:01 a.m. February 1, 1993. The
system confirms that the begin time is set.
☞
If the B parameter is specified, all other parameters, except
W, are ignored in that command line.
Start Time To display the CDR log from a time after the logical begin time,
[S <TIME>] enter a specific start time. If no start time is specified, the listing
begins with the first record logged after the logical begin time.
@CDR S .
To select a particular start time, at the @ prompt, enter the
command followed by the year, month, day, hour, and minute.
