flash:/logfile/logfile.log
2. Identify the log file on each member device:
# Display the log file on the master device.
<Sysname> dir flash:/logfile/
Directory of flash:/logfile

# Display the log file on each subordinate device:
<Sysname> dir slot2#flash:/logfile/
Directory of slot2#flash:/logfile
0 -rw-
524288 KB total (107944 KB free)
