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 204.

3. From the Event Log menu, type L to select Configure Log Outputs.

The Configure Log Outputs menu is shown in Figure 62.
