NAME
       ovlogdump  -  dumps  a specified binary log file as text in the current
       locale to the console

SYNOPSIS
       ovlogdump -h|-help

       ovlogdump -version

       ovlogdump [<binary_logfile_name>]

       ovlogdump -merge -tofile <binary_logfile_name> -fromfiles  <binary_log‐
       file1_name> <binary_logfile2_name>...

DESCRIPTION
       The  ovlogdump  command	dumps a binary log file as text in the current
       locale to the console. To view the contents of a log file, specify  its
       location	 and  name; else, the system.bin file is dumped to the console
       by default.

       By default, all the log files are stored in the following location:

       On Windows:

       C:\Program Files\HP OpenView\Data\log

       On UNIX:

       /var/opt/OV/log

       If permissions are inadequate for the default locations, the log	 files
       are stored in the <OvDataDir>/log/public directory.

       During  application logging, if multiple log files are created, you can
       use the -merge option to merge these files into	a  single  binary  log
       file.

       Parameters

       ovlogdump recognizes the following options:

       [<binary_logfile_name>]

	      The  name	 and  location of the binary log file to be dumped. If
	      the log file name is  not	 specified,  system.bin	 file  in  the
	      <OVDataDir>/log/	directory  is  displayed  on  the  console  by
	      default.

       -merge -tofile <binary_logfile_name> -fromfiles	<binary_logfile1_name>
       <binary_logfile2_name>....

	      Merges   application   log   files   specified  by  <binary_log‐
	      file1_name>.... into a  single  binary  log  file	 specified  by
	      <binary_logfile_name>.  This option is not supported for merging
	      system log files.

       -h|-help

	      Displays all available options for the ovlogdump command.

       -version

	      Displays the version of the ovlogdump command.
