Collecting common log messages

1. Save common log messages from the log buffer to a log file.
By default, the log file is saved in the logfile directory of the flash memory on each member
device.
<Sysname> logfile save
The contents in the log file buffer have been saved to the file
flash:/logfile/logfile.log
2. Identify the common log file on each member device:
# Display the common log file on the master device.
<Sysname> dir flash:/logfile/
Directory of flash:/logfile
0 -rw-
1048576 KB total (38812 KB free)
# Display the common log file on each subordinate device:
<Sysname> dir slot2#flash:/logfile/
Directory of slot2#flash:/logfile
0 -rw-
1048576 KB total (38812 KB free)
3. Transfer the files to the desired destination by using FTP, TFTP, or USB. (Details not shown.)
