Procedure documentation diag_histlist Locate the document in the library structure

Use

You display the available diagnosis files.

If you execute the DBM command without specifying a time stamp, the system displays a list of all available diagnosis files, the directory in which they are stored, and the time stamp of each one.

If you specify a time stamp in addition to the DBM command, the system displays the file IDs of the diagnosis files. You can display the contents of a file by using the file ID (see: file_getfirst).

You can, however, also use the information about the directory to access diagnosis files using the operating system.

Prerequisites

You have the server authorization DBFileRead.
