10.3 Log and Trace

There are two logging facilities in the Prestige. The first is the error logs and trace records that are stored
locally. The second is the UNIX syslog facility for message logging.

10.3.1 Viewing Error Log

The first place you should look for clues when something goes wrong is the error log. Follow the
procedures to view the local error/trace log:
Step 1. Type 24 in the main menu to display Menu 24 System Maintenance.
Step 2. From menu 24, type 3 to display Menu 24.3 System Maintenance Log and Trace.

Figure 10-5 Menu 24.3 — System Maintenance — Log and Trace

Step 3. Enter 1 from Menu 24.3 System Maintenance Log and Trace to display the error log in

the system.

After the Prestige finishes displaying the error log, you will have the option to clear it. Samples of typical
error and information messages are presented in the next figure.
