332.0. "EXTRACT does not see the console output soon enou" by CX3PST::ANASAZ::J_BECKER (There's no substitute for a good boot) Fri Aug 05 1994 01:33



	When a system crashed during a shutdown.  The last item on the 
	screen was the output of shutdown.com.  The CONSOLE EXTRACT
	command didn't show any data as the system was booting
	UNTIL it was up and the CONSOLE CONNECT command was perform.
	Then then extract command had the full output, starting at
	where it left off.  Does the product buffer the data and 
	the extract command must wait for the data to be flushed?
	If so, is there a way to flush the data sooner?

John,

  Yes, the product buffers the data, we have had a few "complaints"
  about this behaviour, If possible, I intend to fix this in our
  first patch kit, but for now, I am afraid that you will have to
  live with it.

Cheers,
Phil

Tom,

  We have done some work on the daemon for the MUP which will cause the
  data to hit the log file sooner. This should (although there are no
  guarantees) ripple through to the extract image.

  So, I am afraid that you are going to have to try it when you get the MUP,
  we have had a lot of other higher priority fixes to make.

Cheers,
Phil
