Add active logs

Perform the following steps to add an active log:

1. On the Add/Remove Active Logs panel specify which active log or logs you want to add by using one of the following methods:
   • Type the name of the log in the active log commands input fields. You can type more than one log name in the input field.
   • Select an existing active log from the list of log data sets by typing S in the Act field next to the log data set.

2. Type ADD on the Command line and press Enter to display the Add Active Logs Parameters panel.
