LOGSAVE(8) System Manager's Manual LOGSAVE(8)
logsave - save the output of a command in a logfile
logsave [ -asv ] logfile cmd_prog [ ... ]
The logsave program will execute cmd_prog with the specified
argument(s), and save a copy of its output to logfile. If the
containing directory for logfile does not exist, logsave will
accumulate the output in memory until it can be written out. A
copy of the output will also be written to standard output.
If cmd_prog is a single hyphen ('-'), then instead of executing a
program, logsave will take its input from standard input and save
it in logfile
logsave is useful for saving the output of initial boot scripts
until the /var partition is mounted, so the output can be written
to /var/log.
-a This option will cause the output to be appended to
logfile, instead of replacing its current contents.
-s This option will cause logsave to skip writing to the log
file text which is bracketed with a control-A (ASCII 001
or Start of Header) and control-B (ASCII 002 or Start of
Text). This allows progress bar information to be visible
to the user on the console, while not being written to the
log file.
-v This option will make logsave to be more verbose in its
output to the user.
