Only the 64 most recent entries are displayed on the page.
Description
The log message text, which includes the time the log was recorded.
The rest of the page displays the Memory Log messages. The format of the log message is
the same for messages that are displayed for the message log, persistent log, or console log.
Messages logged to a collector or relay via syslog have the same format as well.
The following example shows the standard format for a log message:
<14> Mar 24 05:34:05 10.131.12.183-1 UNKN[2176789276]:
main_login.c(179) 3855 %% HTTP Session 19 initiated for user admin
connected from 10.27.64.122
The number contained in the angle brackets represents the message priority, which is
derived from the following values:
Priority = (facility value × 8) + severity level.
The facility value is usually one, which means it is a user-level message. Therefore, to
determine the severity level of the message, subtract eight from the number in the angle
brackets. The example log message has a severity level of 6 (informational). For more
information about the severity of a log message, see the
