SAN switch 2/32 Version 4.0.2b Release Notes
Message Classification
Syslogd
messages are classified according to facility and priority (severity
code). This enables a system administrator to take different actions depending on
the error.
The switch supports 6 message severity levels for error log messages.
The following table provides a mapping between severity levels used by the
switch and the
syslogd
severity levels supported by the UNIX system.
Message severity Levels/UNIX
syslogd
message severity levels:
■
Numerical Value: Numerical Value
■
Panic (0): Emergency (LOG_EMERG) (0)
■
Critical (1): Alert (LOG_ALERT) (1)
■
Error (2): Error (LOG_ERR) (3)
■
Warning (3): Warning (LOG_WARNING) (4)
■
Info (4): Info (LOG_INFO) (6)
■
Debug (5): Debug (LOG_DEBUG) (7)
syslogd
Configuration
This procedure explains how to configure the switch to dispatch error log
messages to a remote
syslogd
host.To configure the switch to forward switch
error log messages to a remote
syslogd
host the following steps must be
performed:
1.
Login to the switch as Admin user.
2.
At the command line enter the
syslogdipadd
command as follows:
switch:admin>syslogdipadd “IP address of the remote syslogd
host”
3.
Verify the IP address was entered correctly using the
syslogdipshow
command.
This following example shows how to configure the switch to dispatch error
log messages to a remote
syslogd
host whose IP address is
192.168.148.189
switch:admin> syslogdipadd 192.168.148.189
switch:admin> syslogdipshow
syslog.IP.address.1 192.168.148.189
