Log Viewer

The Z and I Emulator for Windows log viewer utility enables you to view, merge, sort, search, and filter information contained in message and trace logs. Use the log viewer during problem analysis to work with message and trace log entries. The default name of the message log output file is PCSMSG.MLG; its file extension must be .mlg. The file extension for trace logs must be .tlg.

To view message or trace logs:
  1. From the Administrative and PD Aids subfolder, click Log Viewer; or, from an active session, click Launch → Log Viewer from the Actions menu.
  2. From the list of logged messages, double-click a message to display the message text.
Note: Only one message log is created per machine. In simultaneous user environments such as WTS, all user messages are logged into that single instance of the log file. See Using Windows Terminal Services for more information about terminal services.
