.SH NAME
rtas_dump \- dump the contents of an RTAS event.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B /usr/sbin/rtas_dump
[ options ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fIrtas_dump\fR icommand is used to dump the contents of an RTAS event
into a human readable form. The tool is able to parse the contents of
/var/log/messages, /var/log/platform and /var/log/boot.msg to extract dump
the contents of RTAS events. RTAS events can also be read in from a specified
file or stdin. The real work of de-coding RTAS events is handled by

input and files and passes on the data to \fIrtas_event_decode\fR.
