Chapter 7: Event Log and Syslog Client Commands
134
Description
This command is used to set a severity level for the event log and the
syslog client. The severity level is used to control the messages that are
displayed by the event log with the LOGGING SHOW command and that
are sent to a syslog server. The same severity level applies to both the
event log and the syslog client.
The severity level is inclusive of the designated severity level and all levels
above it. For example, at the default setting of Event for the severity level,
the LOGGING SHOW command displays all of the messages in the event
log, because the Event severity is the lowest level. But if you were to set
the management module’s severity level to Major, the LOGGING SHOW
command would display just the Critical and Major messages.
This command also controls the messages sent by the management
module’s syslog client to a syslog server. At the default value of Event, all
messages are sent to a syslog server. But if you set the module’s severity
to Major, then only Critical and Major messages would be sent.
Examples
This command sets the severity level to critical:
logging set eventlog severity-level=critical
This command sets the severity level to major:
logging set eventlog severity-level=major
