Clearing the Trap History File
The trap history file can hold only a fixed number of messages. When it reaches its
limit, it starts overwriting the log at the beginning. The Trap Monitor lets you
empty the current trap history file so that you can start a new log of trap messages.
From the Trap Monitor window, select File > Clear History File.
The Trap Monitor updates the trap history file and begins immediately to store
new trap messages.
Saving Trap Messages
The Trap Monitor lets you save the traps currently displayed in the Trap Monitor
window to an ASCII file on your Site Manager workstation. You can later view,
edit, or print this file.
To save trap messages to an ASCII file, proceed as follows:
1. From the Trap Monitor window, select File > Save Traps.
The Trap Monitor prompts you to name the file
(Figure 2-18).
Figure 2-18. Saving Traps to a File
2. Type a directory and filename; then click on Save.
The system saves the log to an ASCII file on your computer. (If you do not
specify a directory, the system saves the file to your local directory.) The Trap
Monitor window reappears.
Note: You cannot reload an ASCII file back into the Trap Monitor.
