Monitoring and Logging System Information
To view the log messages in the system startup and operational log files, you
must download the log files to an administrative host. The startup log files are
named slogX.txt and the operation log files are named ologX.txt. When
enabled, the system stores the startup and operation log files for the last three
switch boots. The current log files have a zero (0) in the file name (replacing
the X in the name as shown above), the prior log files contain a one (1) in the
name, and the oldest log files contain a two (2) in the name. For more
information about downloading files, see "Managing Images and Files" on
page 309.
What Is the Log Message Format?
The first part of the log message up to the first left bracket is fixed by the
Syslog standard (RFC 3164). The second part up to the two percent signs is
standardized for all Dell PowerConnect logs. The variable text of the log
message follows. The log message is limited to 96 bytes.
Each log message uses the following format:
• PRI—This consists of the facility code (see RFC 3164) multiplied by 8 and
added to the severity. The log messages use the local7 facility code (23).
This implies that a message of severity 0 will have a priority of 184 and a
message of severity 7 will have a priority of 191.
• Timestamp—This is the system up time. For systems that use SNTP, this
is UTC. When time zones are enabled, local time will be used.
• Host IP address—This is the IP address of the local system.
• Stack ID —This is the assigned stack ID. For the PowerConnect
8000/8100-series switch, the stack ID number is always 1.
