Displaying an
Event Log
Each time that you want to view an event log, you must choose how and
what you want displayed. Event log settings are not saved.
To specify the type of events you want to view in an event log, perform the
following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.
The System Administration menu is shown in Figure 4 on page 54.
2. From the System Administration menu, type 8 to select Event Log.
The Event Log menu is shown in Figure 77 on page 263.
3. To specify the event log whose events you want to view, type 2 to
select Display Output and toggle between these two options:
Temporary (Memory)
Displays the events stored in temporary memory. This selection stores
approximately 4,000 events. If the switch has been running for some
time without a reset or power cycle, select Temporary. This is the
default.
Permanent (NVS)
Displays events stored in nonvolatile memory, which stores no more
than 2,000 events. If the switch was recently reset or power cycled and
you want to view the events that occurred prior to the reset, select
Permanent.
4. To select the order of the events in the event log, type 3 to select
Display Order and toggle between these two options:
Chronological
Displays the events in the order from the oldest event to the most
recent event. This is the default.
Reverse Chronological
Displays the events from the most recent event to the oldest event.
5. To select the format of the event log, type 4 to select Display Mode
and toggle between these two options:
Normal
Displays the time, module, severity, and description for each event.
This is the default. An example of Normal mode is shown in Figure 78
on page 267.
Full
Displays the same information as Normal, plus the file name, line
number, and event ID. An example of Full mode is shown in Figure 79
on page 269.
