Capturing System Messages at Bootup

The storage router logs a variety of messages to the console during the system
boot process. If you are experiencing problems with the storage router, it may be
helpful to capture these messages. Use the console interface to perform the boot
process and capture the console log using typical external methods.

Understanding Logging

The storage router generates a variety of system event messages. All storage
router event and debug messages are issued in the following format:
Example 26: Event Message
Mar 18 11:48:05: %SNMP-5-SASAS: SnmpApp starting...
<timestamp>: %<facility>-<level_number>-<mnemonic>:
<message text>
All messages are assigned a notification level, which reflects the priority of the
message in the system. Messages with the highest priority are assigned a
notification level of emergency. Messages at this level indicate that the system is
unusable. Messages with the lowest priority are assigned a notification level of
debug. Messages at this level are for troubleshooting purposes. In
message level number is 5, indicating a notification level of notice.
