System Management
System Log Page
If the ‘Auto-Scroll’ check box is checked, the displayed event list scrolls automatically as new
events are added to the list. The new events are displayed as they occur.
If the ‘Auto-Scroll’ check box is not checked, the displayed event list remains stationary unless
you scroll manually.
The ‘Logging Port’ option is a drop-down list in which you can choose the source for the log
messages that are displayed. The choices are:
Main Log Transaction Log Tieline Monitor Log
Virtual XPT Log NvAgent Log TCP/IP Log (NP0017)
NVSP Log (NV0025) NP Interface Log SNMP Router Agent Log
Sony Bridge Log SMS NC SVC Log SNMP Master Agent Log
DHP Log SNMP Master Control Agent Log
Reconnect Button
Click the ‘Reconnect’ button to re-establish the logging communication link with the NV9000
software if it ever fails. If the link is functioning, you should see the message “Connected to
telnet log port XXXX.”
Filters
The filters section includes 2 drop-down lists and a text field:
Entries in these field reduce the number of list entries that are displayed.
The entries in ‘Origin’ drop-down list vary with the logging port you chose above.
The entries in the ‘Severity’ drop-down list are a subset of the 8 possible entries. The entries are
those severity levels that can be found in the existing log.
Origin
The ‘Origin’ drop-down list has entries that restrict the list entries to the specified source. Some
of the choices in the list for the main log might be:
CPt_9 Debug DistObj NvDB
NVMaster PanelSrv RTRID_1 RtrSrv
The actual entries in the ‘Origin’ drop-down list vary with the logging port that you chose.
The control panels used in your system are logging sources and can have entries in ‘Origin’ drop-
down list (subject to the chosen logging port).
Severity
The ‘Severity’ drop-down list has entries that restrict the list entries to the specified severity
level. There are 7 severity levels, roughly in order of the amount of data logged:
Errors Only critical system errors are logged (e.g., loss of a server).
Warnings Only warnings and errors are logged (e.g., loss of a backup control card).
System events This level of logging includes the two previous levels, plus system events
(e.g., a panel or a router dropping off line).
