The ability to create a log mark is a unique Log Master feature. Log marks enable you to associate a name with a point on the log. You can use a log mark to define the start point and end point for a time frame.

When you specify a log mark, you can later refer to that point by the log mark name. You do not have to know the actual RBA or LRSN. Log Master maintains log mark information internally, in a Repository table named ALPMARK.
