HP StorageWorks 2.128 SAN Director Switch - Manual (Page 139)

Fabric OS 5.x administrator guide 139
In the following example, Fabric OS messages map to local7 facility level 7 in the
/etc/syslog.conf
file:
If you prefer to map Fabric OS severities to a different UNIX local7 facility level, see ” Setting the facility
level ” on page 139.
Configuring the switch
Configuring the switch involves specifying
syslogd
hosts and, optionally, setting the facility level. You
can also remove a host from the list of
syslogd
hosts.
Specifying syslogd hosts
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Issue the
syslogDipAdd
command and specify an IP address.
3. Verify that the IP address was entered correctly, using the
syslogDipShow
command.
You can specify up to six host IP addresses for storing syslog messages, as shown in the following
example:
Setting the facility level
You must set the facility level only if you specified a facility other than local7 in the host
/etc/syslog.conf
file.
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Issue the following command:
syslogdfacility -l n
where
n
is a number from 0 through 7, indicating a UNIX local7 facility. The default is 7.
Removing a syslogd host from the list
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Issue the
syslogDipRemove
command:
switch:admin> syslogdipremove 10.1.2.1
local7.emerg /var/adm/swcritical
local7.alert /var/adm/alert7
local7.crit /var/adm/crit7
local7.err /var/adm/swerror
