Chapter 1 System Message Overview

Error Message Traceback Reports

All syslog messages generated by a stacking-capable switch other than the master switch are displayed

ending with (Switch-x) where Switch-x is the number of the stack member generating the message.

Syslog messages generated by the master switch are displayed with no hostname string.

This example shows a partial switch system message for a stack master and a stack member switch

(hostname Switch-2) in a switch stack:

Error Message Traceback Reports

Some messages describe internal errors and contain traceback information. This information is very

important and should be included when you report a problem to your technical support representative.

This message example includes traceback information:

-Process= "Exec", level= 0, pid= 17

-Traceback= 1A82 1AB4 6378 A072 1054 1860

Some system messages ask you to copy the error messages and take further action. These online tools

also provide more information about system error messages.
