numbers, and so on, that were stored during the system boot prior to the one in
progress now.
v Read Progress Indicators from Last System Boot
Displays a number of the boot progress indicators, which may include service
processor checkpoints, IPL checkpoints, and/or AIX configuration codes, from the
