10.3 Log and Trace

There are three logging facilities in the Prestige. The first is the error logs and trace records that are stored
locally. The second is the UNIX syslog facility for message logging. UNIX syslog is an external UNIX
server used for storing log messages.

The first place you should look for clues when something goes wrong is the error/trace log. Follow the
procedure below to view the local error/trace log:
Step 1. Select option 24 from the main menu to open Menu 24 - System Maintenance.
Step 2. From menu 24, select option 3 to display Menu 24.3 - System Maintenance - Log and Trace.
Step 3. Select the first option from Menu 24.3 - System Maintenance - Log and Trace to display the
error log in the system.
After the Prestige finishes displaying, you will have the option to clear the error log.
