Configuring The Maximum Size Of The Trace Log File - H3C SR6600-X Configuration Manual

The device supports multiple diagnostic log files. Each diagnostic log file has a maximum capacity. The
diagnostic log files are named as diagfile1.log, diagfile2.log, and so on. When the capacity of
diagfile1.log is reached, the system compresses diagfile1.log as diagfile1.log.gz and creates a new log
file named diagfile2.log. You can download the compressed diagnostic log files. The maximum number
of diagnostic log files varies by device model. When the last diagnostic log file is full or the storage
device runs out of space, the system deletes the oldest diagnostic log file and creates a new one.
To enable saving diagnostic logs to a diagnostic log file:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable the information center.
3. Enable saving diagnostic logs
to a diagnostic log file.
4. (Optional.) Configure the
maximum size of a diagnostic
log file.
5. (Optional.) Specify the
directory to save diagnostic
log files.
6. Save the diagnostic logs in the
diagnostic log file buffer to a
diagnostic log file.

The device has only one trace log file. When the trace log file is full, the device overwrites the oldest trace
logs with new ones.
