LOG FILES

Erases log files, defines Red events, sets priorities and action to be taken
when an event occurs, and clears Red events. (See Define RED Events on page
12-4
.)

» Erase Log Files

The SysLog utility, by default, stores all messages of a certain priority in a
specified local log file or facility. These files are named LOCAL0.txt,
LOCAL1.txt, LOCAL2.TXT, and so on. To erase the file, click on this menu.

» Define RED Events

The red events feature allows the user to predefine a
message priority condition so that if the condition oc-
curs, the file is highlighted in red. In the figure shown
here, any LOCAL0 through LOCAL7 facility becomes
highlighted in red if a

Critical

,

Major

or

Minor

message

is received. This feature allows a user to quickly locate
problem units during troubleshooting.

» Properties

When you click on

Properties

,

the

Set Facility Filters

dialog box

opens, allowing you to specify
what types of messages will be
logged to an ASCII text file. In the
example shown in here, all Sys-
Log event messages of

Normal

and above (i.e.,

Critical, Major,

Minor

and

Warning

) will be

logged.

Info

(debug) messages

will be blocked. In this example, if
the log file exceeds 20K, SysLog
alerts the user on startup to this
fact. Also, from this box, you can
set the alert action.

» Clear Red Events

Click this item to clear all predefined red events.

>

HELP
