Operands
This command has the following operands:
s swinst
- This is an optional parameter. It specifies a switch instance number.
This parameter is required on the Standby CP. This parameter should not be used
on the Active CP.
You must follow -s with the switch instance number where the command is to be
executed. Valid values for switch instance are 0 (for the switch instance associated
with slots 1 though 4) or 1 (for the switch instance associated with slots 6 though
10).
Example
The following example shows how to display persistent error log configuration.
switch:admin> errNvLogSizeShow
Note:
The Persistent Error Log stores up to 1024 entries.
The following example shows how to display persistent error log configuration on
the Standby CP, for switch instance -0.
switch:admin> errNvLogSizeShow -s 0

Error Log Messages
The following Error Log features are included with this release of firmware.
syslogd
The Fabric OS maintains an internal log of all error messages. The internal log
buffers are limited in capacity; when the internal buffers are full, New messages
overwrite old messages.
The switch can be configured to send error log messages to a UNIX host system
that supports
syslogd
. This host system can be configured to receive error/event
messages from the switch and store them in files on the computer hard drive. This
enables the storage of switch error log messages on a host system and overcomes
the size limitations of the internal log buffers on the switch.
