Specifying the System syslog Dump Flash Device and Filename
You can change the flash device and the filename when the syslog dump is enabled or disabled. If you

flash device or the filename, the previous filename for the syslog dump is cleared and the default flash
device and filename (slot0:sysloginfo) are used.
To specify the flash device and filename for the system syslog dump, perform this task in privileged
mode:
