7.6.3 Displaying the Status of a Buffer
You can check the status of a buffer by using the BST command. The ASG Guard/ASG Guard
Plus displays information including the date that the current buffer file was opened, the size and
the time at which the buffer will be switched, and the list of closed buffer files that are ready to be
transferred to the administration computer.
NOTE:
The buffer file is switched either when the maximum buffer size is reached or at the time
specified by the user, whichever occurs first.
An example of buffer status is shown below.
