Appendix A System Messages
Error Message and Recovery Procedures
Error Message
SYS-3-LOGGER_FLUSHED: System was paused for [time-stamp] to ensure
console debugging output.
Explanation
Debugging or informational messages are being generated faster than they can be
displayed on the console. To guarantee that they can be seen, the rest of the system was paused until
the console output catches up. This can break time-critical behavior, such as maintaining an ISDN
link.
Recommended Action
Consider using conditional debugging, turning off console logging, using the no
logging console guaranteed command, or turning off link-state messages for some interfaces.
