This function can be used to display the Adabas Fastpath buffer history information that has been recorded in the Adabas Fastpath configuration file either
automatically (see the Adabas Fastpath Log Parameter) or
by using the log function of Adabas Fastpath Special Services.
If history logs are present for more than one buffer, selecting option
             code 3 from the main menu or entering the direct
             command 3 from the command line
             displays the following screen:

This screen displays a line for each log record of the selected (or default) buffer. Each line includes the following information:
| Column | Description | 
|---|---|
| Sel | The following option codes can be used to process one or more lines (records) of the log:  
                               You must enter the options  Use PF6 to clear all entries in the Select column. | 
| Buffer Session | The buffer session number. Certain operations cannot be performed across sessions. | 
| Logged at Date/Time | The date and time the log was recorded. | 
| E M | E indicates end-of-job. M indicates a special log request using the function Special Services. | 
| Direct Access Read-Ahead | The number of attempted and successful direct access and read-ahead optimizations for each logging period. | 
Use PF8 to display the next page of log records.
If option code ss is marked for a pair of
             records, the following History Interval screen appears. This screen displays
             the statistics for the time interval specified in the screen heading.

The information contained on this screen is exactly like the General Information screen available directly from this screen by pressing PF7. The excluded command analysis, buffer memory and parameter screens can also be invoked by pressing PF6, PF8, and PF9, respectively. All of these screens are described in the section Buffer Information.
If, on the Buffer History screen, you marked a record with an
             s instead of marking a pair, the following screen
             will appear displaying the statistics at the time the history log was
             recorded:

This screen displays the details for a single log record. PF keys can be used to display the next sequential log record until the end of session is found:
| PF Key | Displays... | 
|---|---|
| PF5 Next | The statistics from the current log record. | 
| PF10 Next | The difference between the current and previous log records. The effect of this function varies depending on the type of information being displayed. This key can be used to skip from one statistics time slice to the next showing the statistics achieved in that time slice (taking the difference between one time slice and the next rather than simply displaying the details of each time slice). | 
Other PF keys provide direct access to the Excluded Command Analysis, General Information, Buffer Memory, and Parameter screens, which are described in the Buffer Information section.
