Description
Use this command to display the port log, listing all entries in the log without page
breaks. This command displays the same information as portLogShow, but
portLogShow prompts the user to enter “returns” between each page.
Port logs are circular log files in the switch firmware, which can save up to 1024
entries per logical switch in V3.1.x and up to 8000 entries per logical switch in
V4.1.x. Once the log is full, the newest log entries delete the oldest log entries.
Port logs capture switch-to-device, device-to-switch, switch-to-switch, some
device-to-device1 and control information.
See portLogShow for a description of the port log.
If the port log is disabled, the following message appears as the first line (see
portLogClear for details):
WARNING: port log is disabled
The following information is displayed for each log entry:
portLogDump
Time Displays the event date and time in milliseconds.
Task Displays the name of the internal switch procedure that logged the
event.
Event Displays the task event that generated log entry.
Port # Displays the Port number that logged the event.
