Write Threshold
To extend the lifetime of the event log’s flash memory, a write threshold is set for each event entered in flash memory. The write threshold is 20 entries for each event. If any event exceeds the write threshold, an event entry is displayed in the Event Log screen.
Figure 3-51 shows an example of the event log entry for this type of event.
Entry Number: | 3 | sysUpTime: 02:29:44 Reset | Count: 2 | |
The last event | exceeded the | write threshold. Further write attempts | ||
by this event | are blocked. The write threshold will | be cleared when | ||
the switch is | reset or when | the Event Log is compressed. | ||
Figure 3-51. Sample Event Log Entry Exceeding the Write Threshold
The write threshold is reset when either of the following occurs:
•The BayStack
•The firmware determines that compression is required for maintenance of the event log’s flash memory.
Flash Update
Figure 3-52 shows an example of the event log entry for this type of event.
Entry Number: 13sysUpTime: 12:20:38 Reset Count: 2
Flash configuration update operation (write or erase) failed.
Configuration information may be lost.
