The cat el and more el commands display the contents of the console event log. Status and

operation, and while running system tests. Standard error messages are indicated by asterisks
(***).
When cat el is used, the contents of the console event log scroll by. Use the Ctrl/S key
combination to stop the screen from scrolling, and use Ctrl/Q to resume scrolling.
The more el command allows you to view the console event log, one screen at a time.
