Displaying Debug Information

By default, a switch will not generate events of severity
unless the switch is in debug mode. Debug mode causes a performance penalty, so it
Debug-Data
should only be enabled for specific cases where it is needed. To place the switch in debug mode, use the
following command:
enable log debug-mode
Once debug mode is enabled, any filters configured for your targets will still affect which messages are
passed on or blocked.
NOTE
Previous versions of ExtremeWare used the debug-trace command to enable debugging. Not all
systems in ExtremeWare were converted to use EMS in the initial release. As a result, some debug
information still requires you to use the corresponding debug-trace command. The show log component
command displays the systems in your image that are part of EMS. Any systems in EMS will not have
debug-trace commands, and vice-versa

Compatibility with previous ExtremeWare commands

Since EMS provides much more functionality, there are a number of new commands introduced to
support it. However, if you do not require the enhanced capabilities provided by EMS, you can continue
to use many of the logging commands that existed in earlier versions of ExtremeWare. For consistency,
the earlier commands are still supported. Listed below are earlier commands with their new command
equivalents.
Enable / disable log display
The following commands related to the serial port console:
enable log display
disable log display
are equivalent to using the console-display option in the following commands:
