IBM SC30-3681-08 manual Timestamp, Syntax Set timestamp Timeofday or uptime or off

ELS Monitoring Commands (Talk 5)

this IP address is quickly resolved to a hostname by the name server, or at least that the name server responds quickly with ªaddress not found.º

To determine that the IP address resolves properly enter the host command on your workstation as shown:

workstation>host 5.1.1.1

host: address 5.1.1.1 NOT FOUND workstation>

If the response takes more than 1 second, select an IP address that resolves more quickly.

timestamp

Allows you to turn on message timestamping so that either the time of day or uptime (number of hours, minutes, and seconds, but no date, since the router was last initialized) appears next to each message, or to turn off message timestamping.

Note: If you turn on timestamping, you must remember to go back into the CONFIG process and set the router's date and time using the time command. Otherwise, all messages will come out with 00:00:00, or negative numbers in the hours, minutes, and/or seconds, for example 00:-4:-5.

Use the set timestamp command to enable one of the following timestamp options:

timeofday

Adds an HH:MM:SS pre®x to each ELS message indicating the time of the occurrence during a 24-hour day.

uptime

Adds an HH:MM:SS pre®x to each ELS message indicating the time of the occurrence during a 100-hour cycle of uptime for the router. After 100 hours of uptime, the uptime counter returns to zero to begin another 100-hour cycle.

off Turns off the ELS timestamp pre®x.

Syntax:
set timestamp	[timeofday or uptime or off]

trace Use the set trace command to con®gure tracing options. When tracing options are con®gured from the monitoring environment, the changes take effect immediately, and return to their previously con®gured settings when the device is rebooted.

Syntax:
set trace	decode . . .
	default-bytes-per-pkt . . .
	max-bytes-per-pkt . . .
	off
	on
	reset
	stop-event . . .
