It is available as a third-party application for Windows operating systems. Fabric OS can be configured to use a UNIX-style syslogd process to forward system events and error messages to log files on a remote host system. The host system can be running UNIX, Linux, or any other operating system that supports the standard syslogd functionality. Fabric OS supports UNIX local7 facilities (the default facility level is 7). Configuring for syslogd involves configuring the host, enabling syslogd on the switch, and, optionally, setting the facility level. Configuring the host Fabric OS supports a subset of UNIX-style message severities that default to the UNIX local7 facility. To configure the host, edit the /etc/syslog.conf file to map Fabric OS message severities to UNIX severities, as shown in Table 23. TABLE 23 Fabric OS to UNIX message severities Fabric OS message severity UNIX message severity Critical (1) Error (2) Warning (3) Info (4) Emergency (0) Error (3) Warning (4) Info (6) In this example, Fabric OS messages map to local7 facility level 7 in the /etc/syslog.conf file: local7.emerg local7.alert local7.crit local7.err local7.warning local7.notice /var/adm/swcritical /var/adm/alert7 /var/adm/crit7 /var/adm/swerror /var/adm/swwarning /var/adm/notice7 Fabric OS Troubleshooting and Diagnostics Guide 113 53-1002751-01
