The default alert level for the buffered messages is informational, and the
default alert level for terminal messages is warning. The default alert level for
syslog messages is informational.

Controlling the Size of the Log and Messages

You can set the number of messages that get stored in the history table. By
default, messages of the level warning and above are stored in the history table
even if syslog traps are not enabled. To change level and table size defaults,
use the following commands in Configuration mode:
ProCurve(config)#logging buffered size <size of buffer>

Time-Stamping Messages

By default, the switch time-stamps log messages to enhance real-time debug­
ging and management.

Setting Temperature Thresholds

The management module contains a temperature sensor that monitors tem­
perature on the switch. The sensor generates a Syslog message and an SNMP
trap if the temperature exceeds the specified threshold. The default warning
and critical temperatures are 72.0 C degrees and 74.0 C degrees respectively.
The default shutdown temperature is 78.0 C degrees.
You can use the CLI to specify the warning or critical temperature levels using
the following command:
ProCurve(config)#set-temperature {warning | critical}
<temperature>
For example:
To set a warning level threshold of 66 degrees, enter:
ProCurve(config)#set-temperature warning 66
The system will generate a Syslog message and an SNMP trap if the
temperature exceeds 66 degrees.
