GS716Tv2 and GS724Tv3 Software Administration Manual
•The second log type is the system operation log. The system operation log stores the last N messages received during system operation. This log always has the log full operation attribute set to overwrite. This log can store up to 1000 messages.
Either the system startup log or the system operation log stores a message received by the log subsystem that meets the storage criteria, but not both. On system startup, if the startup log is configured, it stores messages up to its limit. The operation log, if configured, then begins to store the messages.
Use the FLASH Log Configuration page to enable or disable persistent logging and to set the severity filter.
To access the FLASH Log Configuration page, click the Monitoring > Logs tab, and then
click the FLASH Log link.
To configure the FLASH Log settings:
1.Use the radio buttons in the Admin Status field to determine whether to log messages to persistent storage.
•Enable: Enables persistent logging.
•Disable: Prevents the system from logging messages in persistent storage.
2.From the Severity Filter field, specify the type of log messages to record. A log records messages equal to or above a configured severity threshold. For example, if you select Error, the logged messages include Error, Critical, Alert, and Emergency. The default severity level is Alert(1). The severity can be one of the following levels:
•Emergency (0): The highest level warning level. If the device is down or not functioning properly, an emergency log is saved to the device.
•Alert (1): The second highest warning level. An alert log is saved if there is a serious device malfunction, such as all device features being down. Action must be taken immediately.
