You can also filter the event log display with the show log display command and customize which
messages are displayed automatically in the output stream, as described in the following sections.
• Filtering the event log
• Controlling messages in the output

Filtering the event log display

You can customize which events are displayed according to either the component or the severity level. To
filter the events in the display, enter the show log display command with an operand that
corresponds to one of the following severity levels and component events:
• Informative events
• Warning events
• Critical events
• E_Port events
• Management server events
• Name server events
• Port events
• Switch management events
• SNMP events
• Zoning events
The following example filters the event log display for critical events.
SN6000 FC Switch #> show log display critical

Controlling messages in the output stream

Alarms are always included in the output stream. To specify the additional severity level messages to be
automatically displayed on the screen when they occur, enter the set log display command in an
Admin session naming the lowest level message to be displayed. For example, the following command
includes warning and critical level messages in the output stream:
SN6000 FC Switch (admin) #> set log display warn

Managing the event log configuration

Managing the event log configuration consists of configuring the event log, displaying the event log
information, and restoring the event log configuration.

Configuring the event log

You can customize which events are recorded in the switch event log according to component, severity
level, and port. To filter the events to be recorded, enter the set log component, set log level,
and set log port commands in an Admin session. You can choose from the following component
events:
102 Event Log Configuration
display, page 102
stream, page 102
