Chapter 8 Viewing Log Files
Viewing System Logs from the Primary GSSM GUI
OL-10410-01
If you want to delete all rotated log files from the / directory and its subdirectories
on the GSS disk, use the delete-rotated-logs keyword. The GSS does not delete
active log files.
The GSS archives existing log files locally using the following naming
convention:
logfile_name.log.number
where:
logfile_name.log—Name of the archived log file (for example, gss.log or
•
kale.log).
number—Incremented number that represents the number of times that the
•
logs have been rotated (for example, .3). The number of the most recent
rotated log file is .1. The maximum number of log files is 25 for the gss.log
file; five for all other log files.
To rotate existing log files:
gssm1.example.com# rotate-logs
To clear all rotated log files in the $STATE directory and subdirectories, except
for the active log files, enter:
gssm1.example.com# rotate-logs delete-rotated-logs
From the primary GSSM GUI, you can view messages logged in the GSS
system.log file. The system.log file presents the logged information of interest to
GSS administrators, such as the severity of the message, a brief description of the
problem, and any relevant conditions encountered while the message was logged.
The system.log file, however, presents only a subset of all logged information. For
information about viewing the entire contents of the individual GSS log file, see
the "Viewing System Message Logging"
