Log Manager
The Log Manager infrastructure provides
the capability to log the application log files in a centralized repository. The
centralized
repository can be accessed for viewing the log files (to aid in taking appropriate
troubleshooting actions). By default, all logs are enabled and the log files are
categorized
based on module, sub-module, and severity levels. Each entry in a log file has important
information, including module, sub-module, severity level, unit number, and timestamp.
Log Manager provides the following options:
- List Logs: Allows you to list the size
of existing logs on any connected units using the
logmgr listcommand. Log Manager displays a list of existing logs and their sizes hierarchically. The logs are listed separately for each unit. - Fetch Logs: Allows you to collect logs
from any connected units and store them locally using the
logmgr fetchcommand. - Display Logs: Allows you to view the
fetched logs using the
show log debugcommand. When viewing multiple logs, the log files are merged, sorted by timestamp, and stored in a file.
The total memory reserved for all the log files in a unit is restricted to 5 MB on the RUCKUS ICX 7150, and 10MB for all other platforms.
Log Manager collects the log files from the modules and sub-modules listed in the following table.
