11 Automatic trace dump transfers Specifying syslogd hosts 1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 2. Enter the syslogdIpAdd command and specify an IP address. 3. Verify that the IP address was entered correctly, using the syslogdIpShow command. The syslogdIpadd command accepts IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. You can specify up to six host IP addresses for storing syslog messages, as shown in this example: switch:admin> syslogdipadd 1080::8:800:200C:417A switch:admin> syslogdipadd 1081::8:800:200C:417A switch:admin> syslogdipadd 1082::8:800:200C:417A switch:admin> syslogdipadd 10.1.2.4 switch:admin> syslogdipadd 10.1.2.5 switch:admin> syslogdipadd 10.1.2.6 switch:admin> syslogdipshow syslog.IP.address.1080::8:800:200C:417A syslog.IP.address.1081::8:800:200C:417A syslog.IP.address.1082::8:800:200C:417A syslog.IP.address.4 10.1.2.4 syslog.IP.address.5 10.1.2.5 syslog.IP.address.6 10.1.2.6 Setting the facility level 1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 2. Enter the following command: switch:admin> syslogdfacility -l n n is a number from 0 through 7, indicating a UNIX local7 facility. The default is 7. It is necessary to set the facility level only if you specified a facility other than local7 in the host /etc/syslog.conf file. Removing a syslogd host from the list 1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 2. Enter the syslogdIpRemove command: switch:admin> syslogdipremove 10.1.2.1 3. Verify the IP address was deleted using the syslogdIpShow command. Automatic trace dump transfers You can set up a switch so that diagnostic information is transferred automatically to a remote server. If a problem occurs, you can then provide your customer support representative with the most detailed information possible. To ensure the best service, you should set up for automatic transfer as part of standard switch configuration, before a problem occurs. 90 Fabric OS Troubleshoot and Diagnostics Guide 53-1001340-01

switch:admin> syslogdfacility -l
n
n
is a number from 0 through 7, indicating a UNIX local7 facility. The default is 7.
It is necessary to set the facility level only if you specified a facility other than local7 in the host
/etc/syslog.conf
file.
Removing a syslogd host from the list
1.
Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2.
Enter the
syslogdIpRemove
command:
switch:admin>
syslogdipremove 10.1.2.1
3.
