Configuring a syslog IP address

The syslog IP address represents the IP address of the server that is running the syslog process. The syslog
daemon reads and forwards system messages to the appropriate log files and/or users, depending on the
system configuration. When one or more IP addresses are configured, the switch forwards all error log
entries to the syslog on the specified servers. Up to six servers are supported. See the HP StorageWorks
Fabric OS 5.x administrator guide for more information on configuring the syslog daemon.
When you configure a syslog IP address for the Core Switch 2/64 or for a SAN Director 2/128 or
4/256 SAN Director configured with two logical switches, it is on a logical-switch basis. This means that
for each logical switch, you must configure a syslog IP address individually.
