Viewing Device Logs from the CLI
Each GSS device contains a number of log files that retain records of both
GSS-related activity as well as the performance of the various GSS subsystems.
Access these log files from the CLI to troubleshoot problems or to better
understand the behavior of a GSS device.
This section includes the following procedures:
• Viewing the gss.log File from the CLI
• Viewing System Message Logging
• Viewing Subsystem Log Files from the CLI
• Rotating Existing Log Files from the CLI
Viewing the gss.log File from the CLI
The gss.log file groups useful information for a GSS device, such as the keepalive,
availability and load statistics. Use the show logs command to view this log file
from the CLI.
Note The show logs command dumps all logged information to your terminal session.
This output may be quite large and can exceed the buffer size set for the terminal.
If you want to capture all logged information, use the terminal-length CLI
command to adjust the size of your screen buffer (see the
“Configuring Terminal
Screen Line Length” section in Chapter 2, Managing the GSS from the CLI).
Otherwise, use the tail or follow options as described in this section to limit the
output of the file.
The syntax for this command is:
show logs {follow | tail}
