There are some image and configuration files on the PCMCIA that take up a total
of 6144 KB. The system recalculates the allowable log file size as follows:
•
Space available to SMP: 8192 KB - 6144 KB = 2048 KB
•
Allowed log file size: 2048 KB * 0.90 = 1843 KB
The log file will be transferred to a remote host when it reaches 1843 KB. A
transfer is triggered at 1843 KB, rather than 2048 KB, because of the
maxoccupyPercentage
parameter. This parameter, set at 90% in this example,
ensures that the PCMCIA never completely fills to 100% capacity. Therefore, a
transfer of the log file is triggered by either
maxsize
or
maxoccuptPercentage
, whichever is reached first.
Example 3
The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 has been in operation for some time with an
8 MB (8192 KB) PCMCIA installed.
The configured parameters are as follows:
•
minsize: 500 KB
•
maxsize: 2048 KB
•
maxoccupyPercentage: 90
Current operating parameters are as follows:
•
PCMCIA size: 8192 KB
•
Current log file size: 200 KB
There are some image and configuration files on the PCMCIA that take up a total
of 7782 KB. The system recalculates the allowable log file size as follows:
•
Space available to SMP: 8192 KB - 7782 KB = 410 KB
•
Allowed log file size: 410 KB * 0.90 = 369 KB
The log file is immediately transferred to a remote host the next time a log
message is generated. Logging to the PCMCIA also stops, and system logging is
continued in DRAM on the CPU.
