System Message Logging Configuration Distribution
You can enable fabric distribution for all Cisco MDS switches in the fabric. When you perform system
message logging configurations, and distribution is enabled, that configuration is distributed to all the
switches in the fabric.
You automatically acquire a fabric-wide lock when you issue the first configuration command after you
enabled distribution in a switch. The system message logging server uses the effective and pending
database model to store or commit the commands based on your configuration. When you commit the
configuration changes, the effective database is overwritten by the configuration changes in the pending
database and all the switches in the fabric receive the same configuration. After making the configuration
changes, you can choose to discard the changes by aborting the changes instead of committing them. In
either case, the lock is released. See
the CFS application.
To enable fabric distribution for system message logging server configurations, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# logging distribute
switch(config)# no logging distribute
