Error Log Messages
The following Error Log features are included with this release of firmware.
syslogd
The Fabric OS maintains an internal log of all error messages. The internal log
buffers are limited in capacity; when the internal buffers are full, New messages
overwrite old messages.
The switch can be configured to send error log messages to a UNIX host system
that supports syslogd. This host system can be configured to receive error/event
messages from the switch and store them in files on the computer hard drive. This
enables the storage of switch error log messages on a host system and overcomes
the size limitations of the internal log buffers on the switch.
