Displays... flushes overruns level messages logged level code The number of times the Syslog buffer has been cleared by the clear logging command. For information about clearing the Syslog buffer, refer to "Static and dynamic buffers" on page 116. The number of times the dynamic log buffer has filled up and been cleared to hold new entries. For example, if the buffer is set for 100 entries, the 101st entry causes an overrun. After that, the 201st entry causes a second overrun. The message levels that are enabled. Each letter represents a message type and is identified by the key (level code) below the value. If you disable logging of a message level, the code for that level is not listed. The total number of messages that have been logged since the software was loaded. The message levels represented by the one-letter codes. Static and dynamic buffers The software provides two separate buffers: • Static - logs power supply failures, fan failures, and temperature warning or shutdown messages • Dynamic - logs all other message types In the static log, new messages replace older ones, so only the most recent message is displayed. For example, only the most recent temperature warning message will be present in the log. If multiple temperature warning messages are sent to the log, the latest one replaces the previous one. The static buffer is not configurable. The message types that appear in the static buffer do not appear in the dynamic buffer. The dynamic buffer contains up to the maximum number of messages configured for the buffer (50 by default), then begins removing the oldest messages (at the bottom of the log) to make room for new ones. The static and dynamic buffers are both displayed when you display the log. BigIron RX(config)# show logging ...

For example, to clear only the dynamic buffer, enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level: BigIron RX# clear logging dynamic-buffer 116 BigIron RX Installation Guide 53-1001811-01
