Description
Use this command to display or set the mode (as rotating or first-in) of the history
buffer.
The history log buffer can have two modes of accepting new entries after it has
reached its maximum size:
■ Rotating mode: new messages overwrite the oldest messages in the log.
■ First-in mode: once the log is full, all additional logs are discarded, so that the
first set of logs to fill the buffer is preserved.
This command enables you to display the current history log mode and change
between them. It also enables you to clear the history log buffer whenever the
mode is changed.
This command, with no operand, displays the current history mode value.
This command, with an operand specified, sets the history mode to the new value.
Operands
This command has the following operands:

Specify rot for a rotating buffer, or fi for First-in mode. This
