Modifying the

Event Log Full

Action

This procedure explains how to control what an event log does after it has
stored its maximum number of events. You have two options. The first is to
have the switch delete the oldest entries in the log as it adds new entries.
The second is to have the switch stop adding entries, so as to preserve the
existing log contents.

Note

The switch continues to send events to syslog servers even when
the logs are full.

To configure the event log full action, do the following procedure:

1. From the home page, select Configuration.

2. From the Configuration menu, select the System option.

3. Select the Event Log tab.

The Event log tab is shown in Figure 37 on page 139.

4. Under Current Log Outputs, select Output 0, Permanent, to configure

the log stored in permanent memory, or Output 1, Temporary, to
configure the log in temporary memory.

5. Click Modify.

The Modify Event Log Output window is displayed. The window for the
temporary memory log is shown in Figure 40.
