Configuring Logging
To Activate Logging
To Activate Logging
NetIPC logging is automatically activated at system start up. Network
Services logging is activated when the Network Services are initiated
(that is, when the NSCONTROL START command is issued). Link
manager logging and network transport logging are activated when you
initiate the network transport (NETCONTROL START).
When you are changing a logging configuration for a specific subsystem,
the changes will normally take effect when you perform a
SWITCHNMLOG UPDATE command. In some cases, however, such as
when no logging is currently active, the subsystem may need to be
deactivated and restarted. The steps that must be taken for each
subsystem are shown in Table 13-1.
Table 13-1 Subsystem Activation/Deactivation
How to use the log messages for troubleshooting is described in the
NS 3000/iX Error Messages Reference Manual. How to format the log
file for examination is described in Using the Node Management
Services (NMS) Utilities.
