DESCRIPTION

Use this command to enable or disable real-time trace logging and to indicate whether the feature is
enabled or disabled.

The RTLog facility captures the most recent hardware events and low-level software interrupts on
Brocade DCX platforms in real time. When enabled, the RTLog traces are collected as part of the
supportSave utility. The RTLog generates no console output. The RTLog is enabled by default and
persistent across reboots. The rtLogTrace configuration is lost after a power cycle.
