setDbg

Sets the debug level of the specified module.

Synopsis

setdbg [module_name][level]

Description

Use this command to set the debug level of a specified module. Debug levels filter the display of
debug messages to the serial console. By default, no debug messages are displayed.

High debug level values can generate a large volume of messages, degrading the system response
time.

The set of supported modules and their current debug levels are displayed by the command
dbgShow.

Note

The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command
Availability" for details.

Operands

This command has the following operands:

module_name

Specify the name of the module for which you want to view the debug and
verbosity levels. Module names are case-sensitive. This operand is optional; if
omitted, this command displays the debug and verbose level for all modules.

level

Specify the debug level for the specified module (0 to 9). A zero (0) value
(default) specifies that no messages are to display. Higher values cause more
messages from that module to display. This operand is optional; if omitted,
this command displays the current debug and verbose level of the specified
module.

Examples

To set the debug level for a module named NS to value 3:

switch:admin>

setdbg NS 3

switch:admin>

dbgshow NS

Module NS, debug level = 3, verbose level = 0
