Commands for Clearing Logs

NOTE: For more information about alert messages, see the Dell OpenManage™ Server Administrator Messages Reference Guide.

You can use the omconfig system command to clear three logs: the alert log, the command log, and the hardware, or ESM, log.

To clear the contents of the alert log, type:

omconfig system alertlog action=clear

NOTE: Entering an invalid RAC user name may prevent the command log from displaying. Clearing the command log resolves this condition.

To clear the contents of the command log, type:

omconfig system cmdlog action=clear

To clear the contents of the ESM log, type:

omconfig system esmlog action=clear

omconfig system pedestinations

Use the omconfig system pedestinations command to set IP addresses for alert destinations.

Table 4-22 shows the valid parameters for the command.

NOTE: You can either specify the index and IP address as parameters together OR you can set the community string as a parameter alone.
