Redirecting Command Output

Redirecting Command Output

You can redirect command output to save a Measure report, plot, or INFO command
display in a file:

To redirect the output from one MEASCOM command, specify the OUT

filename

option immediately after the command, on the same line and before any
arguments. For example:

4+ LIST /OUT $PERF.DATA.MYVOL/ CPU 1, FROM 12:30, TO 12:45

To redirect the output of multiple MEASCOM commands, enter the OUT

filename

command. The file named in this command will contain the prompts

and MEASCOM commands as well as the command output. For example:

6+ OUT $PERF.DATA.MYVOL

The output files created by both the OUT option and the OUT command can be edited,
printed, included in reports, or used as command (OBEY) files.

This example creates a command file named DAILY. The command file can be used,
with minimal editing, to configure a measurement.

7+ ADD MEASUREMENT NOV5
8+ INFO MEASUREMENT /OUT DAILY/ NOV5
9+ EXIT
45> FUP COPY DAILY
Add measurement $PERF.DATA.NOV5 -- Current Data File --

You can also save a copy of all or part of a MEASCOM session by using the LOG TO
and LOG STOP commands.

The LOG TO command causes MEASCOM to write a copy of all succeeding prompts,
command lines, and command output to the specified file. The LOG STOP command
causes MEASCOM to stop writing to the log file and close it. MEASCOM automatically
closes the log file at the end of a session.
