list mst from 222 count 7
Description
This command is used to display the messages in the trace buffer. It can be
used when the trace is disabled or active, but if active, older messages may be
sporadically omitted if wraparound is selected and the message rate is high. This
command can be used repeatedly without destroying the integrity of the buffer.
Defaults
The default for the command is to display all messages in FIFO order, i.e., until
the displayed message momentarily catches up with the newest message, and
not "auto-page".
Parameters
from message number The message number to start the display may be entered. If
the message number specified is not in the buffer, then that
will be indicated on the display, and no additional messages
will be displayed. If this clause is omitted, then the messages
will be displayed starting with the oldest in the buffer for FIFO
and for "continuous". For LIFO, the display will start with the
newest message in the buffer.
continuous The display will be updated as new messages enter the trace
buffer. The messages will be displayed in FIFO order. This
option is most useful in conjunction with "auto-page". The list
continuous command will terminate only when canceled by
the user.
count The count of messages to display may be used to limit the
trace
LIFO The messages will be displayed with the current newest
message first.
FIFO The messages will be displayed in the order received.
