Some aspects of the operation of the overall system have associated events and messages that can be logged.
Logging of such events is enabled via the system object attributes shown in Table 5.2 below :-
Table 5.2. System-Event Logging attributes
system object attribute | Event types |
log | General system events. |
log-debug | System debug messages. |
log-error | System error messages. |
log-eth | General Ethernet hardware messages. |
log-eth-debug | Ethernet hardware debug messages. |
log-eth-error | Ethernet hardware error messages. |
log-support | System support events (e.g. panic stack traces). |
log-stats | "One second stats" messages |
Specifying system event logging attributes is usually only necessary when diagnosing problems with the FB2500, and will typically
be done under guidance from support staff. For example, log-stats causes a log message to be generated every second containing some key system
statistics and state information, which are useful for debugging.
Note that there are some system events, such as startup and shutdown, which are always logged to all log targets, and to the console and flash by default, regardless of these logging attributes.
