getlog

114
The SP maintains a log of event messages in its memory. These events
include hard errors, startups, and shutdowns involving disk modules, fans,
SPs, power supplies, and the battery backup unit. Periodically, the SP writes
this log to disk to maintain it when SP power is off. The log can hold over
2,000 event messages; it has a filter feature that lets you select events by
device or error message.
The event messages are in chronological order, with the most recent
messages at the end. To display the entire log, use
raid5 -d device getlog
To display the newest n entries in the log, starting with the oldest entry, use
raid5 -d device getlog +n
To display the oldest n entries in the log, starting with the oldest entry, use
raid5 -d device getlog -n
Following is a possible output of the command

These entries show that a field-replaceable unit (disk module, fan unit,
battery backup unit, SP) has failed, been replaced, been rebuilt, and been
enabled.
At the tail of each log entry is an error code in brackets that gives diagnostic
information when it is available. Table B-6 summarizes the error codes.
