Troubleshooting Tips
Use the debug event manager command in privileged EXEC mode to troubleshoot EEM command operations.
Use any debugging command with caution as the volume of generated output can slow or stop the device
operations. We recommend that this command be used only under the supervision of a Cisco engineer.
