System Log screen
The System Log screen (Figure 100) displays or clears messages obtained from
system nonvolatile random access memory (NVRAM) or dynamic random access
memory (DRAM) and NVRAM. When the switch is part of a stack configuration,
the System screen displays only the data for the Business Policy Switch you are
connected to through the Console/Comm port.
System Log messages operate as follows:
NVRAM messages are retrievable after a sy stem reset.
DRAM messages can be viewed while the system is operational.
All NVRAM and DRAM messages are time stamped.
When you restart your system after a reset, the DRAM messages are deleted.
After a reset, all messages stored in NVRAM are copied to DRAM (DRAM
messages are not copied to NVRAM). The messages copied to DRAM are
time stamped to zero (0).
To open the Event Log screen:
