Chapter 4 Using the CSS Logging Features Interpreting sys.log Log Messages • ip_or_host - The IP address or host name of the TFTP server to receive the file. Enter an IP address in dotted-decimal notation (for example, 192.168.11.1) or in mnemonic host-name format (for example, myhost.mydomain.com). If you wish to use a host name, you must first set up a host table using the host command. • filename - The name you want to assign to the file on the TFTP server. Include the full path to the file. Enter an unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum of 32 characters. For example, to copy the starlog log file to a TFTP server: # copy log starlog tftp tftpserv1 starlogthurs Interpreting sys.log Log Messages The following example shows a sys.log message. This section describes the parts of a log message using this example. FEB 16 14:01:13 5/1 2453 VLANMGR-7: Transmit sfm STP BPDU on bPort 1, egressLp 0x1f00 VlanLpSend() ret:0 A log message consists of the following components: • The time stamp indicates when the log message event occurred. In this example, the time stamp is FEB 16 14:01:13. • The physical interface indicates the slot/subslot (for example, 5/1) where the event occurred in the CSS. • The counter records the incremental occurrence of each message. The count of this message is 2,453. • The subsystem name and level is the CSS subsystem assigned to the message and the level of the message. Because this example is a subsystem message, the subsystem is the VLAN Manager and the log level is 7, which is a debug level (VLANMGR-7). See the "Configuring Logging for a Subsystem" section for a list of CSS subsystems. • The log message indicating the event has occurred. The remaining string in the example is the event that occurred. Transmit sfm STP BPDU on bPort 1, egressLp 0x1f00 VlanLpSend() ret:0 You can define a log message for a subsystem at a particular logging level through the cliLogMessage subsystem command. For more information, see the "Configuring a Log Message for a Subsystem at a Logging Level" section. OL-5647-02 Cisco Content Services Switch Administration Guide 4-25
