SWITCHNMLOG 

Closes the current NM log file and creates and opens a new one.

Syntax 

     SWITCHNMLOG  [UPDATE    ]
                  [filenumber]

Use 

SWITCHNMLOG can be issued from a session, a job, a program, or in break.
Pressing [BREAK] has no effect on this command.

Parameters 

UPDATE              Updates logging configuration for all subsystems.  If
                    you change the logging configuration using NMMGR, you
                    can update the configuration without stopping the
                    transport or links by issuing the SWITCHNMLOG command
                    with the UPDATE option.

filenumber          Closes the current NMLG file and opens a new file
                    with the specified number.  The number can be any
                    number from 0 to 9999.

Description 

SWITCHNMLOG closes the current NM log file (NMLGnnnn.PUB.SYS) and creates
and opens a new one.

When this command is issued, NMS displays this message:

     NMLG FILE NUMBER nnnn IS mm% FULL
     NMLG FILE NUMBER pppp ON

where nnnn is the number of the current NM log file that was just closed,
mm is the percentage of file space used by the file, and pppp is the
newly opened file, numbered one more than the closed file's number
(nnnn).

If an irrecoverable error has disabled NM logging, this message is
displayed instead of the command's normal display:

     NMLG FILE NUMBER nnnn ERROR #nn.
     NM LOGGING STOPPED.  (NMCNERR 36)

You will have to do a warm or cool start to bring the system back up.

If NM logging is enabled but currently suspended because of a recoverable
error, an explanatory message is displayed after the command's normal
display:

     NMLG FILE NUMBER nnnn IS mm% FULL
     NMLG FILE NUMBER nnnn ERROR #nn. NM LOGGING SUSPENDED.  (NMCNERR 38)

Once the error is corrected, you can issue the RESUMENMLOG command
(described earlier in this chapter).
