Modifying the
Event Log Full
Action
This procedure explains how to control what the log will do once it reaches
its maximum capacity of 4,000 events. You have two options. The first is
to have the switch delete the oldest entries as it adds new entries to the
log. The second is to have the switch stop adding entries, so as to
preserve the existing log contents.
This procedure is only relevant when viewing the event log through a local
or remote management session. If you defined syslog servers, the switch
continues to send events to a syslog server even when the log is full.
To configure the event log, do the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.
2. From the System Administration menu, type 8 to select Event Log.
The Event Log menu is shown in Figure 60 on page 218.
3. From the Event Log menu, type L to select Configure Log Outputs.
