Answer: C

Explanation:

The High Performance Extensible Logging (HPEL) facility writes to the log and trace repositories in a binary format. You can view, query and filter the repository using the LogViewer command.

logviewer.sh -monitor -includeLoggers Connection

-monitor [integer]Specifies that you want the logViewer to continuously monitor the repository and output new log record entries as they are created. You can provide an optional integer argument after this parameter to specify how often you want the LogViewer tool to query the repository for new records. By default the logViewer queries the repository for new records every 5 seconds. When used with other filtering options, only those new records that match the filter criteria are displayed.
