Notice that the static buffer contains two separate messages for fan failures. Each message of
each type has its own buffer. Thus, if you replace fan 1 but for some reason that fan also fails, the
software replaces the first message about the failure of fan 1 with the newer message. The
software does not overwrite the message for fan 2, unless the software sends a newer message for
fan 2.

Clearing log entries

When you clear log entries, you can selectively clear the static or dynamic buffer, or you can clear
both. For example, to clear only the dynamic buffer, enter the following command at the Privileged
EXEC level.

Brocade#clear logging dynamic-buffer

Syntax: clear logging [dynamic-buffer | static-buffer]

You can specify dynamic-buffer to clear the dynamic buffer or static-buffer to clear the static buffer.
If you do not specify a buffer, both buffers are cleared.

Time stamps

The contents of the time stamp differ depending on whether you have set the time and date on the
onboard system clock:

If you have set the time and date on the onboard system clock, the date and time are shown in
the following format.
mm dd hh:mm:ss

where

mm – abbreviation for the name of the month

dd – day

hh – hours

mm – minutes

ss – seconds

For example, “Oct 15 17:38:03” means October 15 at 5:38 PM and 3 seconds.
