With :DEBUG, you can check the status of system logging and change it if
needed.
Here is the procedure.
:DEBUG
>use datinit.dat.telesup
>macstart " ","1"
>FV kso_pointer(#248) 'slog_glob_rec_t.log_enabled'
If the return value is FALSE then you need to re-enable it.

>MV kso_pointer(#248)+symaddr('slog_glob_rec_t.log_enabled'),1
Debug will prompt you with something like:
VIRT <virtual address>  = "...."  $0  :=

Your reply should be $1000000.  This will re-enable logging and I would
recommend an immediate :SWITCHLOG to open a new system logfile.

Instead of the previous command, you can also use:

>VAR log_addr  [a.c0000000+(#248*8)+4]
>MV log_addr+5c,,,bitd(1,0,8,u32([log_addr+5c]))

It is also a good idea to check what the system thinks is the current system
logfile number:

>FV kso_pointer(#248) 'slog_glob_rec_t.cur_fnamenum'
This will returns the hexadecimal value for the logfile number.  Take this
value and convert it to decimal like this:

>=<value>,d

Do a :LISTF and check if there is any system logfile in the way.


NOTE:  Of course, you need a user with PM capability to do this.
