59-5

What follows is a detailed explanation of the fields involved:

Priority

The priority is calculated using the following formula: facility*8+severity, in which facility represents the
logging facility name and can be configured when you set the log host parameters. The facility ranges
from local0 to local7 (16 to 23 in decimal integers) and defaults to local7. The facility is mainly used to
mark different log sources on the log host, query and filter the logs of the corresponding log source.
Severity ranges from 0 to 7.

Table 59-1

details the value and meaning associated with each severity.

Note that there is no space between the priority and timestamp fields and that the priority takes effect
only when the information has been sent to the log host.

Timestamp

Timestamp records the time when system information is generated to allow users to check and identify
system events.

Note that there is a space between the timestamp and sysname (host name) fields.

Sysname

Sysname is the system name of the current host. You can use the sysname command to modify the
system name. (Refer to System Maintaining and Debugging in H3C WX6103 Access Controller Switch

Interface Board Configuration Guide

for details)

Note that there is a space between the sysname and module fields.

Module

The module field represents the name of the module that generates system information. You can enter
the info-center source ? command in system view to view the module list.

Refer to

Table 59-3

for module name and description.

Between “module” and “level” is a “/”.

Level (Severity)

System information can be divided into eight levels based on its severity, from 0 to 7. Refer to

Table 59-1

for definition and description of these severity levels. Note that there is a forward slash between the
levels (severity) and digest fields.

Digest

The digest field is a string of up to 32 characters, outlining the system information.

Note that there is a colon between the digest and content fields.

Content

This field provides the content of the system information.
