Introduction to System Error Messages For information on configuring the syslogd functionality, refer to the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS Procedures Guide. Port Logs The Fabric OS maintains an internal log of all port activity. Each switch or logical switch maintains a log file for each port. Port Logs are circular log files that can save up to 8000 entries per logical switch. When the log is full, new log entries overwrite the oldest entries. Port Logs capture switch-to-device, device-to-switch, some deviceA-to-deviceB, and control information. Port Logs are not persistent and are lost over power cycles and reboots. Use the portlogshow command to display the Port Logs for a particular port. Refer to the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS Procedures Guide for information on interpreting the output from the portlogdump command. Note: The Port Log functionality is completely separate from the System Error Log functionality. Typically, Port Logs are used to troubleshoot connection of devices. s System Console The system console displays messages through the serial port. If you telnet into the Ethernet port, you will not receive console messages. The system console displays both system error messages and panic trace messages. These messages are mirrored only to the system console and are always saved in one of the system logs.

Port Logs
The Fabric OS maintains an internal log of all port activity. Each switch or logical
switch maintains a log file for each port. Port Logs are circular log files that can
save up to 8000 entries per logical switch. When the log is full, new log entries
overwrite the oldest entries. Port Logs capture switch-to-device, device-to-switch,
some deviceA-to-deviceB, and control information. Port Logs are not persistent
and are lost over power cycles and reboots.
Use the
portlogshow
command to display the Port Logs for a particular port.
Refer to the
HP StorageWorks Fabric OS Procedures Guide
for information on
interpreting the output from the
portlogdump
command.
Note:
The Port Log functionality is completely separate from the System Error Log
functionality. Typically, Port Logs are used to troubleshoot connection of devices.

The system console displays messages through the serial port. If you telnet into
the Ethernet port, you will not receive console messages. The system console
displays both system error messages and panic trace messages. These messages
