Status Monitoring and Statistics
destination MAC address, since the event contains no destination MAC address. If you specify the
strict-match keyword, then the filter will never match event XYZ.event5, since this event does not
contain the destination MAC address.
In other words, if the match keyword is specified, an incident will pass a filter so long as all parameter
values in the incident match those in the match criteria, but all parameter types in the match criteria
need not be present in the event definition.
Formatting Event Messages
Event messages are made up of a number of items. The individual items can be formatted, however,
EMS does not allow you to vary the order of the items. To format the messages for a particular target,
use the following command:
configure log target [console | memory-buffer | nvram | session | syslog [all |
<ipaddress> [local0 ... local7]]]
format [timestamp [seconds | hundredths | none]
| date [dd-mm-yyyy | dd-Mmm-yyyy | mm-dd-yyyy | Mmm-dd | yyyy-mm-dd | none]
| severity
| event-name [component | condition | none | subcomponent]
| priority
| process-name
| process-slot
| source-line
Using the default format for the session target, an example log message might appear as:
05/29/2003 12:15:25.00 <Warn:SNTP.RslvSrvrFail> The SNTP server parameter value
(TheWrongServer.example.com) can not be resolved.
If you set the current session format using the following command:
configure log target session format timestamp seconds date mm-dd-yyyy event-name
component
The same example would appear as:
05/29/2003 12:16:36 <Warn:SNTP> The SNTP server parameter value
(TheWrongServer.example.com) can not be resolved.
In order to provide some detailed information to technical support, you set the current session format
using the following command:
configure log target session format timestamp hundredths date mmm-dd event-name
condition source-line process-name
The same example would appear as:
May 29 12:17:20.11 SNTP: <Warn:SNTP.RslvSrvrFail> tSntpc: (sntpcLib.c:606) The SNTP
server parameter value (TheWrongServer.example.com) can not be resolved.
Displaying Real-Time Log Messages
You can configure the system to maintain a running real-time display of log messages on the console
display or on a (telnet) session. To turn on the log display on the console, use the following command:
enable log target console
