HP XP P9500 Storage - Manual (Page 146)

Setting the Error Log File Size
There are two error logs: the HDLM manager log file dlmmgrn.log (n
indicates a file number from 1 to 16) and the HDLM GUI log file dlmguin.log
(n indicates a file number of 1 or 2).
You can specify a value (in kilobytes) from 100 to 2000000 for the error log
file size. For HDLM GUI logs, file sizes range from 100 to 9900. If you specify
a value over 9901, 9900 will be used. For HDLM manager logs, the specified
value will be applied as it is without being limited by the above.
When an error log file reaches its maximum size, the information in the oldest
error log file will be overwritten with new information. By specifying both the
log file size and the number of log files, you can collect up to 32000000KB
(approximately 30GB) of error log information.
• Setting up the error log file size by using the set operation
The following is an example of setting up the error log file size by using a
command:
dlnkmgr set -elfs 1000
Specify the size of the error log file in kilobytes.
Setting the Number of Error Log Files
There are two error logs: the HDLM manager log file dlmmgrn.log (n
indicates a file number from 1 to 16) and the HDLM GUI log file dlmguin.log
(n indicates a file number of 1 or 2). You can set the number of files only for
the HDLM manager logs in the Options window and by the set operation. The
number of HDLM GUI log files is set to 2.
You can specify a value from 2 to 16 for the number of HDLM manager log
files.
By specifying both the log file size and the number of log files, you can collect
up to 32000000KB (approximately 30GB) of error logs.
• Setting up the number of error log files by using the set operation
The following is an example of setting up the number of error log files by
using a command:
dlnkmgr set -elfn 5
Specify the number of error log files by using numbers.
Setting the Trace File Size
Trace files for which a trace file size can be set are hdlmtrn.log (n indicates
a file number from 1 to 64). The length of a trace file is fixed, regardless of
how much trace information is actually in the file.
For the trace file size, you can specify a value (in kilobytes) from 100 to
16000. If you specify a value smaller than the setting value, the KAPL01097-
3-78
