Interpreting sys.log Log Messages

OL-5647-02
ip_or_host - The IP address or host name of the TFTP server to receive the
•
file. Enter an IP address in dotted-decimal notation (for example,
192.168.11.1) or in mnemonic host-name format (for example,
myhost.mydomain.com). If you wish to use a host name, you must first set up
a host table using the host command.
filename - The name you want to assign to the file on the TFTP server.
•
Include the full path to the file. Enter an unquoted text string with no spaces
and a maximum of 32 characters.
For example, to copy the starlog log file to a TFTP server:
# copy log starlog tftp tftpserv1 starlogthurs
The following example shows a sys.log message. This section describes the parts
of a log message using this example.
FEB 16 14:01:13 5/1 2453 VLANMGR-7: Transmit sfm STP BPDU on bPort 1,
egressLp 0x1f00 VlanLpSend() ret:0
A log message consists of the following components:
• The time stamp indicates when the log message event occurred. In this
example, the time stamp is FEB 16 14:01:13.
The physical interface indicates the slot/subslot (for example, 5/1) where the
•
event occurred in the CSS.
• The counter records the incremental occurrence of each message. The count
of this message is 2,453.
The subsystem name and level is the CSS subsystem assigned to the message
•
and the level of the message. Because this example is a subsystem message,
the subsystem is the VLAN Manager and the log level is 7, which is a debug
level (VLANMGR-7). See the
section for a list of CSS subsystems.
• The log message indicating the event has occurred. The remaining string in
the example is the event that occurred.
Transmit sfm STP BPDU on bPort 1, egressLp 0x1f00 VlanLpSend()
ret:0
You can define a log message for a subsystem at a particular logging level through
the cliLogMessage subsystem command. For more information, see the
"Configuring a Log Message for a Subsystem at a Logging Level"
